"All the leaves are brown And the sky is grey I've been for a walk On a winter's day I'd be safe and warm If they'd just take that tax away"
Except a California rich person <i>not</i> complaining about not having ... oh, shit, that doesn&#039;t work, does it? It would be quite becoming of them to shut the fuck up and pay their taxes gladly. Er, your Regularity is like a stream of bat&#039;s piss.
Oh so you mean it&#039;s profoundly dishonest to simply add the state rate to the federal rate? Huh! I&#039;d never have expected profound dishonesty from those fighting to restore the trampled rights of the defenseless superrich.
ETA: let&#039;s face it, if you&#039;re in the top marginal brackets, it&#039;s a stone-cold guarantee you&#039;re itemizing; and if you&#039;re itemizing, 13.3% state tax plus 39.6% federal income tax on the remaining 86.7% makes a marginal rate of 47.63%. You&#039;re not paying FICA on those dollars, but you should add in the 1.45% Medicare tax they apparently forgot about, which gets you to 49.08%.
So, they&#039;re lying liars. Or incompetent idiots. Don&#039;t listen, either way.
That&#039;s it. I&#039;m leaving California, as soon I as I can find another state with 1500 miles of coastline and beaches, two or three great wine-producing regions, snow-capped mountains and hot dry deserts.

<blockquote>You know, the rest of America feels about California the way the rest of the world feels about America. They hate us because we do what we want. They think we&rsquo;re too blessed and too free, and it makes them nuts in the dreary hovels of Kabul and Tikrit and Lubbock, Texas. They pray to their threadbare gods that we&rsquo;ll get what we deserve. But it won&rsquo;t happen. Because you never know what we&rsquo;re going to do here next.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. What&#039;s the betting his salary will be $1 and they&#039;ll manipulate the price of some stock so they can give him a &quot;bonus&quot; of not very much which miraculously realizes a 2,000% capital gain in the first year.
It&#039;s how we show we care.
You&#039;ve been paying attention.
Having less available munniez does make the poorz work harder.
Just like it makes the 1% go Galt.
I can&#039;t even eat my ketchup soup. That&#039;s how awful I feel for them.

Oh wait, that&#039;s not what you meant...
Or let him suck your toes. Then your votes count twice.
Well, we do use daemons for a lot of the repetitive shit, so...
Oh, wait, you already meant that, didn&#039;t you? Sorry, slow today.

That&#039;s OK, he&#039;s unemployed, remember?
No need to yell. You&#039;re doing a great job, you job creator.

As Maher was saying:
