Tax Revolts

With the passing of the recent budget, angered and disgruntled Californians are planning tax revolts throughout the state. These revolts include sending of tea bags to legislators and the Governor, Tea Party rallies, and the recalls of Republicans officials that voted for the budget. As fiscal Conservatives, we must express our opposition to this extreme tax increase and force the state to cut spending, increase its personal accountability, and to stop throwing money at the problem.

Before giving you the dates for the Tea Parties, I want to add one more point. Although I am an avid John and Ken listener, I am not in support of their recall initiative of Assemblyman Jeff Miller because he was unfairly and randomly chosen as a “human sacrifice” in the tax revolt. Instead we must focus on letting our legislators know that this new budget is a disaster and we will not support those who “sold out” and voted in favor of it. 

Below are some of the protests planned so far (we’ll keep you updated with others to come). Get out there and show Californian politicians that we are tired of being the State’s ATM.
