Not that it matters, but: 

Quote

California’s proposed tax would not apply to people who buy the guns. Instead, the state would make the businesses that sell guns and ammunition pay the tax. However, most of the time businesses will raise prices to cover the cost of the tax. The tax would not apply to police officers and it would not apply to businesses with sales of less than $5,000 over a three-month period.

Trying to run the sellers out of town by taxing them.

Eh. They're just going to increase the price by the same amount as the tax.

Couldn't have happened to a better State!  The problem isn't them running themselves into the dirt, the problem is how does the rest of the US States keep those liberal cockroaches from moving out of the mess they created to only destroy the next place they infest?

The Dems are trying to run the manufacturers out of business by holding them liable for the criminal misuse of their products. 

Can't get rid of the 2A? Sue the manufacturers out of business when some asshoIe commits a crime with one of their guns. They're insane.

Fast food workers want $20, with the committee having the ability to increase that every year until 2029. 

Let's just have them all make $100k. 

Get ready for burgers and fries to cost three times as much.

The net impact will be to make the investment in automation more possible.  These companies will be compelled to reduce staff to the fullest extent possible. Its the kind of stupidity that one easily finds in government.  They will eventually gut their most prosperous areas.

Has a city in the US been wrecked as quick as San Fran has? 3-4 years ago it was thriving.  NY is not far behind, just taking a little longer.  We’ll get there though. 

[TheNewGirl 1,031]

The gun tax passed our legislature, additional 11% to fund gun safety or whatever, on top of the 11% federal tax to protect forests and wildlife. So a total of 22% on gun and ammo sales. 

So, I predict a large increase in sales of both before this is signed into law by Gavin, and people will now just go to Nevada to get their stuff.

California will fall pretty soon. They’re hemorrhaging money from the rest of the states and spend/give away FAR more than they make. We start refusing to give them federal aid until they comply by locking up the criminals and stop raising taxes they’ll eventually be forced to comply. Honestly, it’s getting to the point I’m about to run for President my damn self cause I’m tired of all these elitists saying “we are gonna do this” and “we are gonna do that” giving people hope that they’ll be different than the last. And yet, it always ends up with them lying about what they were gonna do, they end up embezzling millions, screwing over the American people, and make their friends/corporations richer. Until we get an average, every day american in office we won’t be able to dig ourselves out of the hole the politicians have put us in. Trump was the closest thing we had to an every day American. He wasn’t a career politician and that’s why the left elitists are so threatened that they’re willing to show they don’t care about laws, constitution, human rights, due process, etc

Lol where are are you getting this nonsense? Just about everything you wrote here is wrong. California remains the wealthiest state with the largest economy BY FAR. We give way more to the federal government than we receive- we pay for a lot of the red states:

Again this is just ignorant. We had a 32 billion deficit for ONE YEAR after several years of surplus. The new budget takes care of that: 

https://apnews.com/article/california-state-budget-2023-2db8442a1d7c0ecc5b6827207c1dad03

We do have a long term pension problem, as do many states. But overall the budget is just fine.

Connecticut, New Jersey and Massachusetts each contribute thousands more on a per capita basis than they receive back from the feds. California is the closest to breaking even at a net difference of $12 per person

You're probably looking at total aid, which is completely misleading.  What you want to do is account for the amount of taxes generated by the state, and also per capita.

This website explains it for you: https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/federal-aid-by-state

 

To make it simpler, this site came up with a score of how dependent each state is on the fed govt.  Cal is at the bottom. https://www.moneygeek.com/living/states-most-reliant-federal-government/

tl;dr You're wrong.

Yes. It changes from year to year. Sometimes California breaks even. Sometimes we pay out a lot more (which is definitely the case over the the last 10-20 years, which is why I’m very confident about my previous post.) We never take in more than we pay, which is what the idiot wrote.
