Do you know what happened 158 years ago this past fall... back in 1850?
                 California became a state
            The people had no electricity.
           The state had no money.
       Almost everyone spoke Spanish.
      There were gunfights in the streets.

So basically nothing has changed except the women had real breasts and the men didn't hold hands

So...when the dust settles I think my sales tax will be 9 3/4 %.

That's nice.

Next will be the food tax.

Between taxes and permits and fees, I have no money left! :banghead

I have to pay $1100.00 a year for a permit that says it's OK for it to rain on my building.
I have to pay over twice that to allow the fire dept. to come and inspect my building every year and tell me to be careful about fire. Then I have to pay for a permit for my fire alarm. And that is attached to sprinkler system that I have to pay to be inspected each year and permitted as well!

I pay for permits to weld, to spray paint, to sell things, to operate, to use my little shipping scale, it's out of control.

I can't afford to go out of business 'cause then I can't pay for the going out of business permit!  :pissed

It's a fact of Life:

After Monday and Tuesday, even the Calendar says : WTF .......

No chit..Stormwater Permit. If you own a building in L.A. County that houses a business, it's subject to inspection and if it falls under any one of a bazillion different Industry codes, you have to have a permit.

I fall under "No Exposure" so I pay the minimum.  :banghead

Just shut it down totally and permently. Then we have Osama's answer to the problem. Just make them legals and all the problems solved. No more illegals.
