Yep, and a host of other corporate special interests who write laws and “own” the government. [/quote]True, it’s not just limited to the unions. I think a senator was recently arrested for this type of activity (calderon?).

The Corporate/Finance Party is the only party that matters in this country, and they are behind most of our problems — from deficits, debt bubbles, a disappearing middle class, falling wages and purchasing power, societal degradation — the corporate/financial elite are behind all of it.[/quote]
And what is the world’s most profitable business?
Government.

Participant[quote=AN][quote=CA renter]Once again:
Your taxes entitle your (and everyone else’s) children to an education at a public school. That’s all you’re entitled to; nothing more. Whatever you want to do in addition to that, or outside of that, is on your dime.[/quote]
once again, that’s the status quo. I am fully aware of it. Some are fine with it and some are not. I want more choice for everyone and I want to make our tax dollar go further with more competition and choices. I know that will disrupt the status quo. I don’t expect it to happen in CA.[/quote]You’re right it won’t happen – the state assembly in California and the governor work exclusively for public employee unions/CTA. In fact, the CTA LITERALLY writes laws for themselves and then selects a state senator that WILL introduce and pass the measure.
In Sacramento this is known as ‘sponsored legislation’ or really they’re a payoff.
Some examples:

ParticipantInteresting: While America was worried about Duck Dynasty, the NDAA 2014 easily swept through the senate further expanding the police state.

But churches collect money tax free while using public services such as streets and infrastructure.

That’s a myth, churches do pay taxes.

Participant[quote=CA renter] But you can’t do it on the taxpayer’s dime.[/quote]
I don’t want to teach any of those things on the taxpayers dime, just mine. Refund my confiscatory school tax dollars that fuels the religion of the secular-progressive , so I can use that money to send my kids where I want.
“And I definitely don’t get the idea that low-income families should be the only ones who can’t make the choice to seek out a better school. Remember, parents with resources have fled for the suburbs or townships for decades. Families of means have flocked to private schools for generations.”

ParticipantMost important: Remember that the justice system is never more lenient on you when you give up your rights. Confessing or cooperating will only make things harder on you. When you give up your rights, you also give up any hope of being treated fairly.
Never cave in and waive your rights. EVER.

Participant[quote=joec] This whole discussion of “stringent/higher” is missing the point.

As to my view of CA, I’d strongly PREFER to live somewhere near the beach, ideally within walking distance. Even if I have to pay a bit more for it, sacrifice space, or maybe rent vs buying. Being able to walk over for a swim or sit in a cafe with view of the water would make the other compromises in CA worth it to me.[/quote]
And it goes without saying there is nothing wrong with that – but it’s not for everybody.
I like going to the beach once or twice a year, and that’s all I need. Even if I don’t make it to the beach in a given year it’s no big deal/loss for me personally. I can take it or leave it.
I value:
*Good schools for my kids
*Affordable housing
*Clean Air
*Clean water
*Recreational Opportunities
*Low Crime
*Parks and sports fieldsThose are the things Temecula over-delivers on, San Diego doesn’t unless you happen to be a 1%er.
Why is it so hard for you 1%er coastal elites to get that? Yes, we know you’re better than us (valley of the dirt people).
Yes, I know there’s class warfare, and yes I know you’re winning.
