nor did I say that I did. It's your choice to live in a place where you don't get much bang for your buck.

Look for similar cuts for all of us in the HC bill goes through. Sure it's supposed to be "temporary"......just a loaner..... yeah, right.

SACRAMENTO, CA- If you work in California, get ready for less of a paycheck starting on Nov. 1.

It's far from a post-Halloween gag. Soon, a little known part of last summer's legeslative budget deal will take effect, that will increase a withholding tax between now and next April.

The amount of state income taxes withheld from paychecks will increase 10 percent next week.

For someone making about $20,000 dollars per year, state withholding is only about $8. A 10 percent increase will push that up by about $1. Those making upward of $75,000 could see an additional $16 in witholding.

"It's a short term fix to a long-term problem with no guarantee it will work, " said Sacramento CPA Dawn Cornelius.

For state workers, it's a tough sell.

"We've seen furloughs and pay cuts. This is just one more thing that nobody really likes to see, " said state worker Roberta Schueler.

Yep. That's a Republican Governor, for ya!

But really...I'm not too broken up about it. I've always been of the mindset that if you want shit...you gotta pay for it.

You nut-wingers, on the other hand, always want "tax cuts", and cry bloody murder when the bill comes due.

It's no surprise that a person of your mindset, is "feigning" feeling sorry for us.

How do you know "what I get"?

I like Cali.

Don't blame the fact that you're unfit to make it here, on me.
