California sales tax revenue down 33.5% vs estimates | |
| Fred User ID: 1513858  United States08/16/2012 04:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | California Sales Tax Revenues Nosedive By 33.5% Quoting: jcab2002 The state has avoided default by temporarily borrowing from state trust funds, but those accounts will soon need their cash back to continue operating. Today California quickly began trying to sell $10 billion in municipal bonds to fund the record $28 billion they need to keep the lights on. With tax revenue plummeting and the state already the second lowest rated credit in the country, if the independent credit rating agencies downgrade the state to “junk bond”, California will be short up to $18 billion and default. [link to tipggita32.wordpress.com (secure)] Basically, California is to the United States as Greece is to the EU. Here comes the bailouts that will only lead to more bailouts... cut em loose. fuck Cali. Please do cut us lose, would save me a shitload on taxes. |

The funny thing is, the debt isn't that huge considering the economy in California. These fuckers don't want to fire all the government employees so they keep borrowing to keep their damn jobs. Cut these government employees loose and California will blossom again. These fuckers would rather chase businesses away than to loose their own jobs. |

Don't come to my state asking for a handout for your stupidity I do not approve of. I did not take them on to raise. Us Californians didn't take you on to raise either, but we are and have been doing it. Take a look at how much federal tax money flows out of Cali and how much of it we actually get back!
