Newsom & Democrats hike their gas tax — again

Sunday, November 10, 2024, 1:47 pm | Randy Thomasson

Your California gas tax, the highest in the nation, is going up again, thanks to your Democrat Party “rulers.”

Gavin Newsom’s appointees on the California Air Resources Board (CARB) say they’re going to impose regulations that will likely increase the price per gallon of regular gasoline by 47 cents. But more honest analysis projects CARB’s anti-people agenda will increase your gas tax by 65 cents next year and 20 cents more per gallon by 2030.

When Democrat Party Governor Gavin Newsom (he appointed most of the CARB board members) dramatically hiked your gas taxes on November 8, SaveCalifornia.com joined others in blowing the whistle to alert you what you get with the Democrats:

Bottom line, it’s inhuman for government not to allow people to be supplied with a stable, cheap form of energy, which is cleaner than ever.

Evil government preventing this cheap, stable energy supply prostitutes itself to the environmental-wacko groups that greatly devalue people and people’s life necessities.

Please use these facts to tell others Democrat politicians are responsible for high energy prices (both gasoline and electricity).

Our take on California’s 10 props on the fall ballot

Saturday, July 6, 2024, 7:49 am | Randy Thomasson
After delaying a few days so that Newsom & Co.’s fake “crime bill” could get on the ballot (it didn’t), California’s Secretary of State late on July 3 assigned proposition numbers to the 10 measures officially on the November 2024 ballot.

Here’s your first look at them with SaveCalifornia.com’s draft descriptions (you’re going to really want to vote NO on Prop. 3 and really want to vote YES on Prop. 36):

NO Prop. 2 wasting more taxpayer money on the wasteful, dumbing down, politically-correct K-12 government schools and community colleges. This $10 BILLION bond would cost much more than that with high interest, and is more expensive than a direct tax.

NO Prop. 3 permitting polygamy, bigamy, child marriages, incestuous marriages (and even people-animal and people-object marriages) by superseding all marriage statutes with a very broad and subjective state constitutional amendment claiming a “fundamental right..to marry” whomever and whatever (the sky’s the limit). Prop. 3 won’t make any practical difference on same-sex “marriage,” yet by superseding all existing marriage definitions, standards, and limits, this radical constitutional amendment would open up “Pandora’s Box.”

NO Prop. 4 funding another lie-based, subsidization of environmental wacko groups via a $10 BILLION bond, costing even more with interest, more expensive than a direct tax.

NO Prop. 5 permitting higher property taxes (attacking Prop. 13 from 1978) by lowering the “vote threshold from 66.67% to 55% for local special taxes and bond measures to fund housing projects and public infrastructure.”

NO Prop. 6 calling it “slavery” to make prisoners do work they don’t wish to do.

NO Prop. 32 increasing the state minimum wage to $18/hr. for all California employees (killing even more jobs and businesses).

NO Prop. 33 permitting local governments to enact rent control (resulting in less available rental housing, as landlords seeking income sell their rental houses and duplexes).

YES Prop. 34 requiring the ultra-left-wing, politically-active AIDS Healthcare Foundation of Los Angeles “to spend 98% of revenues from the federal discount prescription drug program on direct patient care.”

NO Prop. 35 taxing health care providers to pay for government the California state government’s “Medi-Cal” program (further increasing insurance rates for the rest of us).

YES Prop. 36 increasing penalties for theft and fentanyl possession, and repealing the worst parts of Prop. 47 from 2014.

Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone,
and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost.
John Adams, U.S. founding father and 2nd U.S. president
