No, it's because politicians and bureaucrats have an insatiable appetite 
for money.  They are already well on their way to bankrupting California 
and United States along with it.  As far as I know, there has *never* 
been a sales tax increase that has been repealed.  All temporary measures 
have eventually been made permanent.

BTW, this goes for the U.S. Income tax also--it was set up to be a 
"temporary" tax to help with WW I expenses.
