Hmmmm...
I really must draw the line at telling the truth (or anything else) to someone who is about to impose a confiscatory tax on me based on a purchase I am making with funds which were already subject to personal income tax of nearly 50%. DMV fees here on a new Cobra an be as much as $10,000 (10% of the purchase price)
I really enjoy living here but if California doesn't change it will become the largest economy in the turd-world. These fees, taxes and fines are just another symptom of the cancer eating at this state and like any living breathing thing taken by cancer or corruption it will certainly collapse under it's own weight.
While I wish it wouldn't, I secretly wait for that to happen. Ayn Rand had it right half a century ago in her book Atlas Shrugged. The Consumers are outnumbering the Producers and in 1/2 a generation we will likely break down completely enless it turns around.
Ironically, it may be people like our new govenor and other first generation amerICANs who show us (not all of us) the way out of this hole we are digging.
