CA income taxes increasing 2.5%?

[CA renter]

Here’s what I think we should do:

1. Eliminate Prop 13 protection for all second homes and investment properties (can be some exceptions WRT multi-family, rental units, like apartment buildings).

2. Eliminate the Prop 13 protection for commercial RE which allows a new buyer to pay the old taxes when they sell the property as a corporation.

**I strongly favor Prop 13 protection for primary residences and a single commercial property per person/entity controlled by a particular person. IOW, one residence and one commercial property per person gets Prop 13 protection, all the rest floats. BTW Prop 13 is NOT what causes bubbles, it is a response to them…also it is NOT the cause of our funding problems, illegal immigration is (and the businesses that we taxpayers — whose wages are driven down by illegal labor — subsidize because these employers won’t properly pay/care for their employees).

3. Eliminate all government-paid entitlements for illegal immigrants (education, healthcare, housing, food stamps, AFDC, legal and law enforcement costs, etc.). Make the employers pay instead. In cases where an illegal immigrant shows up in an emergency room with a life-threatening illness/trauma, bill the country from which he/she came — or their employer — for the services.

4. Create a one-time “new California resident” fee whenever someone moves here from another state or country…to help pay for the extra burden on our infrastructure (including water supplies).

5. Additional gas tax and .5% sales tax increase.

I’ll bet that if the above were done, we wouldn’t have a budget problem in California.

Good luck with any elimination of entitlements for illegals, the only way that is going to hapen is if Obama legalizes all of them…….. which is on his and the Dems agenda. Legalizing the illegals = millions of new voters for the Dems.

The Repubs want the cheap labor and the Dems want the votes…. niether party gives a crap about legal US citizens.

We all know that if you do not support open borders you are against immigration and a racist. According to the MSM and supporters of open borders there is no difference between immigrants and illegal immigrants.

We all know they are forced to come here and only do jobs that Americans wont do. Here is a short list of what Americans wont do…. landscaping, brick laying, tile work, pool maintenance, construction labor, framing, sheetrock work, painting, wait staff, housekeeping,any thing in the stone industry and almost any labor position.

I am probably not the most objective person when it comes to illegal immigration as I am in an industry that whos labor force is dominated by illegals working under the table. It is getting to the point where a business owner can not compete playing by the rules anymore. I am a fool for employing only legal workers and paying them a decent wage and healthcare.

You’re right, rnen. And I’m not entirely objective either. After working for LAUSD years ago, I saw first-hand how much taxpayer money is being spent on entitlements for illegal immigrants. It’s not just the teachers’ salaries, but the additional administration, free breakfast & lunch programs, free school supplies (most schools that cater to illegal immigrants are Title I/Chapter I/low-income schools and because of the additional federal and state money, teachers are specifically NOT ALLOWED to ask students to bring ANY supplies to school…not even a pencil). These schools also often qualify for additional staffing hours for things like a full-time psychologist, full-time nurse, and full-time certificated staff to assist with testing, etc…and all the additional administrative expenses (on a local, state and federal level) to go with it…and the additional testing expenses…it goes on and on…

And then there are the prisons…but I’ll let someone more informed chime in with those expenses. 😉
