  • Alameda Democrats: We Need Higher taxes for Government Transportation--Unions Need $

    Democrats and their allies have the same answer for any problem--or even non problems.

    "Will voters be in the mood to renew a half-cent sales tax for Alameda County’s transportation needs? That’s what the county’s Transportation Commission is hoping for, as an early renewal of the current sales tax would help pay for improvements related to road, highway and public transit. The tax doesn’t actually expire until 2022, but the commission wants the sales tax to not only be approved a decade early but also increase the rate to 10 percent temporarily so that several projects can begin. The current sales tax is at 9.75 percent and it generates roughly $100 million in revenue each year."

    The poor already spend close to 10% for everything they buy in Alameda County--any wonder they are poor? Maybe the county should sell parking lots, museums, stadiums and other non essential government property?

    Stop the bad policies; end the government collection of bribes from workers and giving te money to extortionists. How much do illegal aliens cost the taxpayers?

    Government has too much money, we need tax cuts not tax hikes for special interest and unions.
