^^ Have you first considered re-reading and then reflecting on what Pud said? Why do you want him to say it again? It was very clear.

Then why are you bitching about your tax rate?

^^^ whoever the f*#k you are you seem to have little understanding of tax codes.
Having a successful small business in California isn't done through ignorance.

I always have all the water I need. But the fascists in Sacramento want to penalize or TAX me for that.


Wait a minute, I thought you, and all the other conservatives on this site said that the state was governed by socialists.
You went to college, so I hear, but you don't know the difference?

Actually I have a California C corp, live in a 4 million dollar house that over looks the Pacific and have been in business for over 20 years. I have a pretty good knowledge of tax codes as they effect me, but really leave the heavy lifting up to my accountant and tax person. I basically pay myself as an employee through my corporation and in 2016 year had very little corporate profits showing after all our expenses have been accounted for.

However, if I had shown more corporate profits last year I'd probably classify them as retained earnings for future use--you may (or may not) want to find another tax person, no need to get hostile.

Edit: and I love California--born and raised here.

You don't think tax payer healthcare subsidies relieve industrialists like Walmart from paying the true cost of their workers, enabling them to pocket the difference?

Not if they choose not to provide healthcare, as many do not.

which is to say you haven't read it, you haven't understood it, and you are sure you're right anyway...

I have a small business in California (Burbank) that does very well. Plenty of dough after taxes. Most of which goes to the Federal Governement.

Sales tax is high in most counties but sales tax is almost everywhere so don't get me started.

The business environment of SoCal/LA is excellent with low unemployment (bad for employers) real estate soaring and so much money everywhere people don't know what to do with it.

Ca is great. If you have money.
Los Angeles county saw their homeless population rise to 47,000 people in 2016.
Meanwhile you hire Eric holder to shield the illegals that rich folks exploit for cheap labor while claiming its for humanitarian reasons

Enjoy your gilded age while you can. It won't last

Did bluering's Covered California Plan suddenly stop paying for his meds?

What a moronic rant. Suggestion, move to a red state. They have a poor grasp on reality. You'll have many receptive ears.

My 'Poor business plans' have bought us three homes and supported a family of 6 comfortably over the last decade.

Not on 40k/yr you didn't.

Ed,
Thanks for the graphs on water use. (tuolumne tradster also)
Good points with "you are in disagreement with the majority of the people in your state."

It is a one party state now, so the excesses (bullet train) of the majority are not necessarily obstructed.
If future public employee pension promises are considered, how sound is California fiscally?


I liked that "King of California" tune
But a King needs a Queen.

Kern River peaked at 20,000 cfs earlier today. Currently 18,000. My old climbing buddy, new river guide is going out. He said " Big waves- very intimidating".
