Did it really never occur to you that what we should do is *REDUCE* *SPENDING*???? I find this "the Legislators say they need more money so we have to find a way to increase taxes" mentality absolutely AMAZING! What answer would you give your teenage son if he said "Hey Pop, I'm dating a fancy girl now, so you better find a way to increase my allowance"? Yeah, I thought so. Anyway, I say thank God for Proposition 13 -- at least now the crooks^H^H^H^H^H^HLegislators have to *WORK* to spend more of other people's money!
