Why would I want to pay what is one of the highest tax rates in America to support state leaders who cannot seem to solve this massive problem?
The governor and state leaders have been vowing for years to fix things. They’ve spent billions of dollars — taxpayer dollars, my dollars and yours — and things have only gotten worse. I know, it’s a thorny problem, and tragic at so many levels, but that does not excuse politicians for taking in huge chunks of money that people earn through their hard work and spending it in ways that appear to be doing more harm than good. My wife and I used to enjoy traveling to San Francisco.
Please bear in mind that these views do not come from a left- or right-leaning perspective. They come from a lifelong libertarian, a voice rarely heard in mainstream media. It is a privilege to share these thoughts, and it’s an honor to have the space in this publication to express these ideas. It’s for this reason and others that I still believe in America.
