    Fix your roads!! Lol.

    We have a saying here in Nevada. If someone is sleeping in the back seat, as soon as you cross the state line, that person will wake up.

    You probably don't have anything of value that anyone wants.

    Everything grows in the central valley, and then there's the emerald triangle. I think they have things of value that lots of people want.

    But fix the damn roads!

    Once they legalize weed for recreational use, the money will be there to fix the roads.

    Not surprising, the best place to live in California is Folsom, I gather they are referring to Folsom prison. :smile:

    It's rated # 1 with affordability since the tax payers pay for everything.

    The worst place to live is the barrio of Huntington Park while Gov. Jerry (Moonbeam) Browns Oakland is second from the bottom.

    Why is it where ever Jerry Brown goes everything ends up getting worse ?

    As every Republican candidate will tell you, you do not need to raise taxes to increase revenue. If you raise your GDP growth you create revenue, and if you are at all familiar with modern politics you will know that California's GDP growth has been outperforming the rest of the nation. You're also overlooking the budget cuts that Brown made during the first few years of his current term as governor

    More than this though, you are misconstruing my posts.. I did not say California has not raised its taxes, you can go back and read over my posts again. What I said is under the current governor, California has not raised any taxes without notifying the voters, and the last tax increase that the California voters approved was back in 2012, which only effected the income tax rate of those making more than $250,000 a year . That's not my opinion, that is the fact of the matter, you can read about the proposition here https://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_30,_Sales_and_Income_Tax_Increase_(2012)

    I mean, I should know about these tax proposals, I do vote on them after all. You need to put politics aside for a minute and look at facts

    Folsom? You're a rube. Folsom sucks. Truckee, Grass Valley, Eureka. Those are nice places to live.

    Since you believe in rain gods, perhaps you should pray to them. No doubt they are Republicans. Good luck.

    Truckee, Grass Valley, Eureka are where the burned out LSD freaks moved too and their offspring are doped up millennial snowflakes.



    California has more than enough rain. The drought is a manmade drought. There's enough water in California but not for 40 million people.

    When I first moved to California the population was less than 12 million. By the early 1970's is when California started to deteriorate and it started getting crowded with 20 million.

    20 million is about all that California and mother nature can support.

    It's like America, the progressives conducted the most comprehensive study ever conducted and it was suggested that the USA should cap it's population at 170 million.

    Lmao. You're a hoot Apache. Clueless about Northern California, but a hoot nonetheless.

    Good advice, You should take it yourself and consider facts other than those you chose to believe and study actual facts.

    What facts do you have to present.. do you have any source material to show any tax increases that were not approved (as in voted on) by the California voters since Brown took office?

    Border control, enforcement of immigration laws would be a hell of a place to start.

    Here is some knowledge for you. Those "trees" that you see are actually mental health professionals disguised so as to not alert the inmates.

    Do you actually believe what you are told and that all taxes increases are put to a vote? Or that they are even called tax increases?

    If so, you are a democratic politicians dream sheep.

    Welfare spending increases, Obamacare increases for the illegals, financial increases for the illegals, support to fund the sanctuary city status of any of your cities, just to name a few.

    Of course if you are fine with these taxes, you keep them. You deserve them.
