Sacremento Politicians Beclown Themselves Again...

Now I realize that headline really isn't news.  Our low information, low IQ legislature beclowns itself on a near-daily basis.  But this beclowning is of a particularly delightful variety – the Democrats pulled a fast one on our budget (no news there), and it very well may be that by doing so, they permanently eliminate one of their beloved sources of “revenue”.  That would be a thing of beauty, that would!

Children in Sacremento...

I'm speaking of our legislators, of course.  The Democrats, petulant that they can't get the Republicans to vote for increased taxes, threaten to cut expenses: in the Repulican's districts!

Are there any adults in the room up there?

I Don't Know How I Missed This One...

...but I did.

This summer our Sacremento-based criminal class approved a so-called “balanced budget”, along with a slew of sleazy, shaky accounting tricks to support it.

One of them, it turns out, is direct theft from the taxpayers: without raising the income tax rates (which determine the actual amount you will owe, come April), they increased the tax withholding (the amount actually withheld from your paycheck) by 10%.  This is exactly the same thing as the state holding a gun to my head, stealing money equal to 10% of my withholdings, and then promising to give it back on April 15 (without interest, of course).

I only see three solutions to this.  The first solution involves 51% of the voters acting in unison to throw the Sacremento criminal class out of office, replacing them with law-abiding citizens.  The second is a Constitutional Convention that make it impossible for the corruptocrats to continue making victims of the citizenry.  The third involves a much smaller number of people and a few hundred pieces of high-velocity lead.

Which sounds most feasible to you?
