so speaking of the government ripping us off. I have a friend out in CA that is a diehard gooberment is always right dem loving leftie. I get this message from her bragging about how CA should be the example for all states blah blah blah because they lowered their deficit for just this year, from 27 million to 23 million....... they did it by literally taxing everything you can think of, including taxes on using public restrooms. yet they still have 1.3 TRILLION dollars in debt overall.
