What Happened Arnold?

Dedicated To The Calamity That Is California And It’s Politics

We find ourselves in a POLITICAL CALAMITY not just in our Nation's capital but here in California as well. Everyday we watch our Country slip farther and farther away from the original vision of our Founding Fathers. We watch as California crumbles underneath the weight of a crushing deficit without the needed leadership to put our state back on track. "We The People" can no longer sit idly by and wait. Take the first step. It is your responsibility to arm yourself with information. You must seek out facts and make up your own mind. No one can tell you how to think, YOU MUST THINK FOR YOURSELF! Part of the reason we are so deeply entrenched in mediocrity is we’ve been all too willing to accept people and their word at face value. We are far too trusting of our Teachers, Main Stream Media and our Politicians. We send our kids to school and expect they will be taught an accurate depiction of History, when in fact History is often rewritten to reflect the views of the “politically correct”. We read newspapers and watch the nightly news and expect we will be told the truth, but instead we’re given agenda based reporting. We elect politicians and trust they will stand by their word and make decisions based on our best interest, only to find we’ve been sold out to special interests. Look around: The herd mentality hasn’t worked out so well, especially here in California. YOU MUST GET INFORMED, BE INFORMED AND STAY INFORMED!

August 3, 2009: Tax Commission Having Trouble Seeing Eye To Eye

By CalamityDevon

Last week we told you about the  21st Century Economy Commission, the 14 member panel charged with overhauling the states tax system.  As you know, Governor Schwarzenegger called a legislative special session set for late September for the legislature to act on the commissions final report.

The tricky part is getting the commission to agree on what will make it into the report.  The commission is even having trouble reaching a consensus on the topic of “workshops” that will take place for the public on August 26 and 28 in Southern and Northern California.  The tax plans being debated include a “new major tax” called the Business Net Receipts tax (BNRT), which is reminiscent of a “value added tax” (VAT), a new carbon tax on fuels,  and a flat tax proposal.  

The commission does post all of it’s internal communications online which offers insight into their proposals and frequent disagreements.  No information has been posted on the planned workshops, we will keep you posted.
