Open original source ↗Yet California politicians want to not only increase taxes but trick you by using labels like “Billionaire Tax” to get you to vote in a constitutional amendment that will allow them to seize your assets and private property. It’s never been done before. Anywhere in the country.
Not only that, they want the ability to do it as often as they see fit.
“Billionaire Tax”. Right.
Quoted context
These are the quoted author’s words.
Why is it so stunningly easy to defraud the State of California? 1.2 million fake community college applications. $32 billion in unemployment fraud. $24 billion in homeless funds lost. $17 billion on a nonexistent High-Speed Rail. $650 million on a cancelled 911 system. We need answers. This is on top of a State Audit that just classified 8 separate agencies as at "high-risk" of serious "waste, fraud, abuse, or mismanagement," with the number doubling during Newsom's tenure. The Auditor found, among other things, that the State has missed 6 straight financial reporting deadlines and that massive improper payments for SNAP, Medi-Cal, and EDD are putting billions at risk.
