The Gubenator's latest scheme to get my beloved state of California out of the money pit has some points that I don't agree with. Some of his proposed taxes will come from what I consider necessities of life; repairs of anything. But I favor taxing the frivolous; golf, amusement and sporting events.
While I'd like to see those that have more be taxed more, it is hard to differentiate between repairs for the sole stove in a family of eight and the third stove in the upstairs bathroom of a playboy. So that leaves entertainment taxes.
During these economy downturns, moneies are sparse, and those that have the spare bucks for golfing, going to 'niners games, or visiting million-flags-over-anywhere parks have, have...well, the state should bolster their coffers from their excesses.
