As we in Washington try to reform our burdensome and convoluted tax system, Governor Brown and the state legislature have just made the Golden State’s tax system even more burdensome and convoluted. That wallop we all felt this week at the gas pump came to us courtesy of the California Democrats’ one-party monopoly.
It is now stunningly evident that the price we pay to fill our tanks is not so much the cost of gasoline itself – now in abundant supply – but is calculated for the benefit of big spending Sacramento politicians, liberal left special interests and greedy bureaucrats. Our bloated state government, long pummeling California’s working people, has finally decided to crush their mobility and their very livelihoods.
This new tax added to the mountain of taxes we already pay is yet another verification that we are working for the politicians in Sacramento and not the other way around.
Four decades ago, Californians launched the first tax revolt. Those fumes emanating from the gas station aisles today are about to fuel the next one.
All the Best,
Dana

Jerry Brown is not even aware of recent history.
Gov. Reagan proved that if you want more income you lower taxes.
Increasing taxes is detrimental to the state and its income goals!
The governor does not even pay attention!

This guy must still be using the old method of counting votes…
That which was used against Dr Orly, when she ran for office there!
Corruption is still his hallmark!
