The "Top 1%"

Well, that whole "End of The World" combo hurricane/earthquake over the weekend was sort of a bust where I live.  Moderate rainshower would be closer.  But like everything else you see advertised here in the once-Golden State, it was oversold and underdelivered.  So back to business...  

Did you know it takes $844,266 of annual income to be considered in the "top 1%" of Taxifornia's taxpayers?

And did you know that CA's "top 1%" paid more than 45% of all of Taxifornia's expenses?  It's entire expenses!

Huh?

I wonder when those dirty, nasty "top 1%" pukes will belly up and start paying their "fair share?"

You see how that works, fellow Patriots?  The CPDLW's* have so taken hold of the "MainStreaMedia" that it's daily goal is to gaslight the only people here who pay taxes!  

Think about this: 10,344 tax filers here in here in Taxifornia paid more than 49% of its income.    

Hmmm.

You wonder what it might take to make the "top 1%" of, say, West Virginia?  It's $344,582.  Less than half of what it takes to be "Rich" in Taxifornia.  Of course, it costs less than half as much to live there.  And it doesn't have a bunch of panties-in-a-bunch, hair-on-fire nitwits calling the shots!  Plus, I'm pretty sure they shoot their hardened criminals instead of giving them another cash-free bail skate.  For the 50th time...

Taxifornian families take in an average of $87,449 a year.  Texas families take in $72,876.  Of course, a 1,100 sq. ft. shoebox here costs an average of $798,767.  A five-bedroom, 4 bath house in Texas costs $369,764.  The weather sucks in Texas, but hey, they're all packing heat, they'll have left crime behind, line dancing is fun, cowboy hats keep out the sun, and with the savings they can buy a bunch of electricity.

And oh yeah, folks are bailing on the now-tarnished Golden State in droves.  More than One Million of your friends and neighbors said buh bye in just the past two years.  And they're all moving to Texas.  And because most of them were born and raised in Taxifornia, and learned all of its Bad Habits, 

Texas is praying they don't bring Taxifornia and its bad habits with them.

Steady readers of this unassuming little blog will remember me saying, over and over, "Pretty soon there'll be no one left here but sign twirlers and Starbucks baristas."  Except I'm no longer sure about the sign twirlers.  They'll no longer be able to afford the coffee...

The above is a lesson in how not to covet your neighbor's sh*t...
