Totally lame. California’s taxes aren’t what’s making his tax burden onerous; it’s the federal taxes that make up the bulk of his taxes.
He DOES have a legitimate gripe, though when hedge fund managers and others who don’t work for their money (like Mitt Romney) are paying 15-20% max while he and others who **work for a living** are paying ~35% (and going higher). There is absolutely no reason to have different (and LOWER!!!) tax rates for the wealthy parasites who don’t even work for their money.
The fairest tax of all is one where all types of income are taxed at the same progressive rates.
