CA State Budget Passed – State’s demise imminent

[cr]

[quote=afx114]Is it a coincidence then that Bush’s first tax cuts went into law in 2001? Were they the cause of the recession or designed to bring us out of it? I didn’t want this argument to turn into a Clinton vs Bush or Democrat vs. Republican argument, I wanted it to be about tax cuts and their effects on the overall economy.[/quote]

Your points are good, but like AN said, if you cut that line at 2006 Bush tax cuts look great. Blame Greenspan for the rest.

Why not incentivize businesses to come from Texas and set up here? Wouldn’t that be better for the state?

I hope no one purchases the CA bonds unless they receive 20% interest or more.

Granted, this is a simplification and taxes aren’t the only variable in the equation here, but how does the tax cut crowd reconcile this discrepancy? They believe that tax cuts are the answer, yet they have 16 years of evidence to the contrary looking them straight in the eye.

You are making the mistake that they are doing anything other than parroting their neo-con puppet-masters. There is no thought process here.

Taxation isn’t theft. Its the price we all pay for enjoying the benefits of a stable society. In fact, *not* paying taxes (or hiring undocumented workers) *is* theft, as your stealing services from those that have paid into the system.

If you don’t like CA taxes, move. Please. And take your crappy taco stand with you.
