This is how it is on the west coast... I don't know how it is in other parts of the country, but here on the west coast, this is the formula:

  1. You propose a tax increase. AGAIN. Yes, another one.

  2. Everyone votes it down

  3. Cut school, public safety and health services. Wait for people to complain.

  4. Say "Oh no, das too bad. We just don't have the moneys because you voted our new tax down."

  5. Propose tax again and make sure it's put up in a special referendum and not on a regular november ballot

  6. bleeding hearts and ballot stuffers vote it in now

  7. Embezzle funds and pretend nothing happened.

EVERY. FUCKING. TIME. They ask for money, it is with the overt or covert understanding that if you do not give it to them, they will CUT your healthcare, infrastructure, and schools in retaliation.

THIS TWEET IS A THREAT.

They are adding Step 8 now.
Put people with a confirmed deadly disease in nursing homes with vulnerable people, to generate more deaths and generate sympathy for even higher taxes and bailouts.

Agreed. It's the same reason they've delayed many of the absentee ballots going out to the military; shipping them out "late" and delaying the processing. The voting fraud in the US is almost at cartel levels.

I'm sure it just had to go to the schools is all. They just need more moneys. We just need a bigger tax increase, that'll fix everything. It always does.

It's basically "Give us yo moneys, or we fuck over yo kids. And that's a promise!"

I’m in the Bay. The school thing’s probably the worst. Basically every tax in that county is like that. People pay hundreds a year in addition to normal taxes for schools as designated public school support taxes. They continually under perform. The kids all hate them, and not just because kids don’t think school is cool, they just hate everything about the indoctrination process. Foreign folks know what’s up so they only send their kids to private schools according to their nationality here. Chinese schools, German schools, etc. And those schools are infinitely better despite infinitely less funding. I will not send my kids to public schools here.

At our public schools out here, Common Core is a joke, and they actively try indoctrinating the teachers too with books like “Antiracism” and “Waking up White”. Required reading for all teachers. And you know all those BLM and other riots that get violent and burn shit down out here? That’s from a group hired to show up at them by the left called Black Bloc and BAMN (By Any Means Necessary), which is run by a junior high teacher out here. You can go see her interview/rant on Tucker Carlson. He just laughed the whole time because she’s a vile caricature of herself.

Don’t bail us out in CA. It’s Newsom’s fault. He’s just going to embezzle the money. You have no idea how rich some people are out here. They can buy small countries. And they’re the ones that most money like that ends up going to because they all run ‘nonprofits’, which are just money laundering operations. It’s a big scam. We’re also a giant sanctuary area. That county alone has 130k illegals by its own studies as I recall. Just that county. They want to give them money. Illegals get free school and college out here too. It’s easier to be an illegal here than a citizen, and even easier than being an international person trying to do it right. This happens even at public universities. They proudly display it on their websites. You can be a born and raised Bay Area person and not get into college while an illegal that wasn’t even born here DACA style gets in over you for diversity and gets a free ride on your tax money.

NotRealDemSocialism 30 points ago +30 / -0

Yup. They fund all the nonsense first, and leave the basic services under funded unless you agree to the latest round of tax hikes or bond initiatives.

It's never funding for tranny book reading at the library on a bond initiative. But seismic retrofitting for a school is.

That’s how they kept the “sanctuary state” law here in Oregon despite the ballot measure to repeal it. They wrote it to make it seem like voting Yes was in favor of the sanctuary state, when voting Yes was actually to repeal it. People were confused and voted it down.

Close the schools and starve the children. I don’t want to bail out California.

California needs to learn to live within their means. Ask those rich Hollywood liberals that claim to love taxes to send in some more money. Chelsea Handler always said she loves paying taxes. Let her pay the state of California a huge sum. Let Meryl Streep donate. Let all these Hollywood people put their money where their mouth is.

Oh for sure. Teachers in MN are loving these shutdowns.They left school March 13th and don’t have to go back until end of August. With all the other time off (Thanksgiving break, two weeks at Christmas, etc.) they are really working less than six months this year. Now I know some will say, “Well, they are working! Distance learning!” But let’s be honest, no one is spending eight hours a day, five days a week on distance learning. It is not happening. They are getting a full paycheck to garden, do household projects, bake, walk around the lakes...then they screech anytime anyone else, like a barber, wants to return to work about “safety”. It is not about safety. It is about them loving having a huge extended break and the taxpayers out of work still have to fund their salaries. If we furloughed teachers or stopped paying them their full salary we would hear a lot more about getting kids back to school.

Oh, and teachers are getting paid now to be home with their own children, but families that work have to figure out daycare options when there are no places available for their children and summer programs have been canceled.

Anyone who says teachers aren’t paid enough have bought into the lies the teachers unions have promoted for years.

When they say "impossible decisions" it means they will be forced to choose between doing the expected government functions or providing their supporters with goodies.

pitter928 6 points ago +6 / -0

Look ..we already do. I pay over 10k a year in property taxes, on top of 10% sales tax, and an additional $2200 a year just in city utility fees, not to mention extremely high utility bills themselves. We don't have a state income tax, thank goodness. I vote no for this shit every chance I get but my dipshit neighbors can't understand that if they just had a pro business plan for the cities and reduced taxes, most of their income problems would go away. But they suck the life and soul out of all our businesses because they're incompetent.

Cyer6 3 points ago +3 / -0

That point needs to be rammed down there throats. They are killing their own tax base and even a bail out does no good if that tax base is dead. It will quickly run out and they'll be back for more. They can build their states back up because last year, they were running budget surpluses. People are ready to get going again and like Trump said, the demand is out there. Once they're told NO, I wonder if they'll concede and realize they have to do something. They're not going to like having to shut down all those government offices and stop paying government workers.

Watch_TheKarma_Burn 11 points ago +12 / -1

Reminds me of my favorite quote...

"The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "Save us!"... and I'll look down and whisper "No."

They had a choice, all of them. They could have followed in the footsteps of good men like my father or President Truman(Trump). Decent men who believed in a day's work for a day's pay. Instead they followed the droppings of lechers and communists and didn't realize that the trail led over a precipice until it was too late. Don't tell me they didn't have a choice. Now the whole world stands on the brink, staring down into bloody Hell, all those liberals and intellectuals and smooth-talkers... and all of a sudden nobody can think of anything to say."

I do understand that somewhat. We had Al Franken steal our election from Norm Coleman when they found a bunch of ballots in the trunk of a car. However, here in MN there are still too many liberals that keep voting for higher taxes.

What impossible decisions, Gavin?

3 easy steps to help balance your budget:

  1. Reopen the economy so people can go back to work, make money, and pay your exorbitant taxes

  2. Get your police to DO THEIR JOBS. Stop giving money to illegal aliens, and deport them instead. Stop ignoring all thefts under $950. Stop looking the other way on crimes just because you are concerned about the melanin content of the perpetrator

  3. Tell the public sector unions to stuff it, fire the ones who either don't do their job and/or do it incompetently and stop pouring huge amounts of money into their vastly under-funded pension funds.

There. Not quite sure how much that will close the gap, but willing to bet that gets you a good chunk of the way there.
