1. New Tactic in California for Paying Pollution Bill, By FELICITY BARRINGER, NY Times, 10/17/10
Government will always find a new way to raise taxes--and use an excuse to do so.
"Officials who have tried and failed to clean the air in California’s smog-filled San Joaquin Valley have seized on a new strategy: getting millions of drivers to shoulder more of the cost.
Faced with a fine of at least $29 million for exceeding federal ozone limits, the San Joaquin Valley’s air quality regulators are proposing an annual surcharge of $10 to $24 on registration fees for the region’s 2.7 million cars and trucks beginning next year. A decision is expected when the governing board meets on Thursday. "
Any wonder folks are leaving California--who can afford this much government creativity?
