Your new withholding tax

The robber puts a gun in your face and says, "Give me $20 and I'll give it back next year." Next year, with gun in hand, he gives the $20 back, then asks for another $20. This is what our "governator," Wesley Chesbro, Patti Wiggins and all the rest of the idiots we have elected have done to the citizens of California starting Nov.

Mr. Pomeroy, your last 4 or 5 comments, better described as edited sound bites in written form, offer no meat to the subject matter you wish to share. Do you think you could offer a broader picture of what your trying to sell the folks around here, so those who take the time to ready your offerings might discuss the topics you refer to, with intelligent thoughts and views, that may agree or differ from your own. If not, you may want to join the local chapter of the CHICKEN LITTLE CLUB, as I hear there bringing back there there age old war cry, The Sky is Falling.

Are we talking about the 10%(?) tax increase on working people that, supposedly, they'll get back next tax season?
If so, I heard the way to foil the plan is to claim more exemptions on your w-2 form... any truth to these things??

Can anyone remember the last time they implemented a tax they were promising to repeal and they actually did it? When I first heard this was headed our way for some reason I could hear a Popeye cartoon and the voice of Wimpy saying "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today".
