California Governor Jerry Brown said his state is so cash-strapped that he’s considering making cuts to public pension benefits.
Unbelievable. Did Democrats finally ran out of taxes to raise?

Nope.
Completely off topic … Nuking the moon was once a real thing? Carl Sagan involved … probably so the project could cost billions and billions …
Nice find! FrankJ take note…
Wait — any relation to Drew68?
Damn…what kind of Democrat is Brown anyway?? JUST jack up everybody’s taxes fool. Don’t you know how to use the Democrat play book??
Governor Brown (upon reading my post): Wait a minute… there might be legal precedent. Of course! tax- raising!
[grabs the Democrat Play Book]
Governor Brown: Tax, tax…tax: “See raise!”
[flips back several pages]
Governor Brown: Ah-ha, California vs. Tax payers. California: 7, Tax Payers: nothing. You see, it can be done!!
Governor Brown: [pointing to a member of his cabinet (after jacking up every tax in the state)] I didn’t get a “harrumph” out of that guy!
Lt. Governor Newsom: Give the Governor harrumph!
Democrat Politician: Harrumph!
Governor Brown: You watch your ass.
{Naturally following} Generic California Taxpayer, upon hearing of the new Governor Brown Tax: “Oh, what’s that . . . . gone and done now?”
Generic California taxpayer: Gov. Brown raised taxes again!?? Now what’ll that a**hole think of next?
[turns to fellow Generic California taxpayers]
Generic California taxpayer: Has anybody got a dime?
[Fellow Generic California taxpayers grumble, search their pockets]
Generic California taxpayer: Somebody’s gotta go back to Sacramento and get a sh*t-load of dimes!
Since it is now a sanctuary state they will be able to recoup most of the money from all those illegal aliens they will be welcoming.
Riiight!
The problem is that the Trump Tax Plan is working as intended.Up until now anytime Sacramento felt like raising taxes, taxpayers could push it off onto the fed. No more. Even worse, they already have a value added tax on lumber and paint, and they just raised the state gas tax, and raised car registration fees. My car costs $180 a year, and my work truck costs $350. They quite seriously are quickly running out of gimmicks to soak the taxpayers.
