A Poets View

I cannot believe during a recession as we are experiencing now that the governor of California would propose a sales tax increase of l.5% which would result in a 10% sales tax in California.  In addition he will be raising fees and taxes on alcohol, veterinary businesses, auto repair shops and golfing fees.  The plan also calls for cuts in education, prisons,  public safety and Medi Cal.  Is he completely nuts? With so many losing their jobs, their homes and not being able to afford the basics he decides to raise taxes?  Why doesn’t he give up some of his salary, he certainly doesn’t need nor deserve all he makes - he doesn’t do anything.  I am appalled at this tax increase and all I can say is it better not pass.  We are ridding ourselves of Bush in January now it’s time for the “Governator” to go!
