quote: The eighth week of the 85th General Assembly saw the passage of Senate Bill 277 to repeal sales taxes on groceries, an effort attempted by several lawmakers over the past 30 years. Those efforts failed, largely because lawmakers couldn't find a way to replace that revenue. The 6 percent state sales tax on groceries currently raises about $200 million a year. Taxes would continue to be levied on restaurant meals.

Few years ago we had to pay to get our cars inspected before we got tags for them. Well the current governor dropped that requirment but we still pay the fee when we get our tags, we just don't have to actually take the car and get it inspected.


Well I should say that I don't have to pay anything to get my tags since I get free military ones.

That's like the "license renewal fee" they have in Quebec. You need to pay it every two years, but they only give you an actual new driver's license every 6...

This reminds me of a conversation with a fellow a while back on the bus I was taking to university. He was b*tching about his taxes, and I told him that those taxes pay for all the roads, medicare, Social Security, etc. Then he came back and said that the government should pay for it, not the taxpayer. Are people this stupid?

Anyone hear about Vincente Fox's latest gaff? In a speach about Mexican immigrants to the U.S., he was praising them by saying that they come here and take jobs that "not even blacks would be willing to take."

So now we know that it's not just our president who says incredibly stupid things...

Yes, well, it should be enforced or changed (it's not such a gross violation of human rights that it merits a mini-revolution).

quote: Originally posted by MrFun I oppose a high level of exporting jobs from United States to other countries, not because I'm racist, but because I know how deplorably low the wages are, that others in third world countries are paid, and how poor their working conditions are. Plus, that these jobs could have been for Americans here, rather than other people abroad. And the fact that I'm concerned about illegal immigration certainly does not make me a racist.

The bold answers my question. Americans are so superior and thus deserve these jobs more, huh? If not, then why should Americans have those jobs instead of other people abroad? Are they not as good?

And if you are concerned about working conditions abroad, work to change those working conditions, not taking the jobs totally away from those people. What do you think they'd rather have? A job with horrid working conditions or no job at all?

Yep, and the incident shows a bunch of crackers, Save our State, an organization devoted to opressing illegal immigrants, coming down to protest crap they have no idea what they are talking about. They are the ones who came down to a place none of them live in and started the whole mess.

I think it's hilarious they got a response back. Morons.

quote: The artwork, called "Danza Indigenas," was created by artist Judy Baca and commissioned by the city. She said the structure is a "layered history piece" that honors American Indians, immigrants and others who have lived over the centuries on the land now known as Baldwin Park. Baca said that Save Our State's complaint over one of the quotes was misguided. "It was better before they came" was uttered by someone Baca described as "a white man from Arkansas, a civic leader" who was complaining about the arrival of Mexican Americans after World War II. "When it went on the arch, its ambiguity became profound," she said. "The `they' could be any `they.'" The protest turned into a heated two-hour rally with protesters on both sides taunting each other and arguing face-to-face before police arrived. "People from Ventura are coming to our town demanding we take down artwork? That's just ridiculous," said Joe Lozano, 23, a Baldwin Park resident. Baldwin Park is heavily Hispanic and police from other departments, including Arcadia, Covina, El Monte, Glendora, were called in to help. Police carrying batons and shotguns eventually escorted the Save Our State supporters from the area. There were no reports of arrests or injuries, police said. Baldwin Park is located about 15 miles east of downtown Los Angeles.
