Democrat Insanity - Taxes, Taxes and More Taxes
- A brand new 1% Jerry Brown sales tax on the people.
Comrade Governor Jerry Brown of the People's Republic of California has a new proposal to impose a new 1 percent lumber sales tax.
AB 1492 would require retailers to impose a 1 percent tax on lumber sold in California. California timber firms support the tax because it relieves them of regulatory fees they must currently pay and shifts the tax to the general public.
The bill is no slam dunk because as a tax it requires a two-thirds vote of the Legislature. Republicans were opposed to the bill earlier this year reports the Sacramento Bee.
Democrats are bankrupting the state with billions spent on a bullet train no one will ride. |

The massive contribution reloads Munger's effort after its balance fell to just $130,235 at the end of June. The campaign spent $8.2 million in the first half of the year.
Munger's Proposition 38 would raise income taxes on all but California's lowest earners. Brown's Proposition 30, which leads the fellow Democrat's measure in polls, would raise the state sales tax and income taxes on California's highest earners.
Meanwhile, the California Nurses Association Union, announced at a news conference in Oakland that it would endorse Brown's measure and then presenting him with a giant $1 million check.
Brown's campaign had $5 million on hand at the end of June. A separate campaign account to support the governor's initiative ended June with a balance of $1.6 million. That campaign committee's contributors include labor unions and state lawmakers.
