What about the tax on owning business items in LA? Does that sound fair? Also, don’t you think it is insane that at a time when we are in need of jobs for an increasing population, job creation is stopped due to bureaucracy? I love California, I am staying to create businesses too. However, there is way too much complacency among residents regarding the situation at which we have arrived due to our policies. These policies perhaps impact business creators first, but also have massive repercussions on the quality of life of other residents. |

From other comments, it sounds like this only applies to items exceeding some large dollar value. I'm all for increasing the tax base, especially with Prop 13 strangling our budget for things like education.

This certainly sucks, especially with how often regulation is abused purely to create barriers to entry and solidify the positions of entrenched players. This is a problem pretty much everywhere but Somalia though, so I'm not hugely moved by one particular instance of it in one county. We certainly have lessons to learn in this regard in California though.
