Cali is going to go broke

The 5th largest economy in the world that is also fully backed by the United States government is going to go broke?

 

[itsyoung!!]

The study in that link says that there's 38 states with higher effective tax rates than California for the median taxpayer, though they shift to slightly above average when cost of living is factored in. You really never read jack shyt, do you?

This is the third time you've lied in the thread, and just I predicted, you know literally nothing about anything you talk about and you're incapable of admitting you're wrong.

Using median for middle class is fukking retarded and you know that because the top 10% and the bottom 20% skew the numbers.
Also taxes dont stop at income tax.

Example:
California has the highest state sales tax, with a rate of 7.25%. Another four states were a close second with a 7% state sales tax: Indiana, Mississippi, Rhode Island, and Tennessee. Not all states collect state sales tax, though. The five no-sales-tax states are Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, and Oregon


Also as far as income tax goes, its still #1. No clue what the fukk you are looking at.

Which state has the highest taxes in the US?


The top 10 highest income tax states (or legal jurisdictions) for 2021 are:

• California 13.3%
• Hawaii 11%
• New Jersey 10.75%
• Oregon 9.9%
• Minnesota 9.85%
• District of Columbia 8.95%
• New York 8.82%
• Vermont 8.75%

But I guess you know more about taxes than turbotax?

You really a stupid bytch with democrat dikk so far down your throat you are literally arguing false points to show California of all states doesnt have bad taxes.

You want to use median taxed income because it favors your argument because some families in bum fukk Death Valley or Bakersfield making $15k a year lower the # significantly. But youre ignoring the bulk of California live in the bay area and la county, and those are the people getting taxed heavy. bytch mafukka

fukk you man forreal you really the worst of the worst on this forum

Raise wages to match the cost of living and pay more attention to vets with physical/mental ailments.

Bay area homelessness is sad/crazy

We got a moderate homeless encampment by my job

Non profits making big money

You beat me to it. What needs to be addressed is the business of homelessness.

Actually most states are close to being broke. If you care, look up any state's annual comprehensive financial report. You'll see most states are spending more than they bring in.

Hence the “backed by the United States” part or did you just casually ignore that?

Governments shouldn’t be in the business of making money in the first place. That’s not their job and austerity always results in human suffering. It’s not in a politicians best interests to shyt on their constituents unless it’s for racist reasons in which you’ll always get votes

 

[HabitualChiller]

Because it's a MENTAL issue. Ironically, the OG MAGA MAN REAGAN, a CALIFORNIAN, stopped federal funding of mental facilities and left it to the states.

It's chickens coming home to roost.

Reagan might have been the worst president in retrospect.

Reagan might have been the worst president in retrospect.

Strong fukking argument for sure.

 

[Sir Richard Spirit]

That's enough to build massive projects for them..but then again that eventually brings its own issues.

Most of those homeless are US citizens..California needs to deport the homeless US citizens there back to the states they came from, same as abbot and desantos have been flying migrants out their states to other states..

17 billion could have built thousands of homes. The state is not addressing homelessness. They are helping people get by. That’s the problem.

How many homes can be built for $300,00 before the 17 billion runs out.

I'm looking at the tax chart it reinforces why I left my home state of Conn awhile back despite a reasonable well quality of life. .

Your concept is off except for one part being governments shouldn't be in business of making money. It does disburse a lot of money via programs that people turn into businesses and that includes in the name of non-profits.

Man, you hit it on the head. Regan was incompetent, and the FBI and CIA knew it and did the unspeakable during that time do your research. Funded foreign wars by putting crack in the streets, and much more
