Anyone else getting tired of politicians looking to take more of our money for things that should be fully funded with the money they already have? Gas Tax for instance is supposed to go to roads and transportation but the clowns in Sacramento have decided it can go to the general fund instead and now they want to raise those taxes again to improve roads. Years ago they lies to the people of California to get funding for High Speed Rail which was supposed to help Caltrain (using the same tracks) now they want to tax us more for something that we are already paying for. Time to send a message and say NO.
