From The Sacramento Bee:
Thanks to passage of Proposition 30 last month, high-income Californians
would pay the nation’s highest marginal income tax rates — nearly 52

Without a fiscal cliff deal to the contrary, the Bush era tax cuts on
high-income taxpayers would expire next year and rates would return to their

Hotel owners got a bed tax because of the notion its up to government to
promote their business and fill their rooms.
Every once and a while the media goes to them and creates a narrative
about how the government should spend the money as if its a separate and
distinct pot of cash the tourism industry controls.
It's not.
The 3% occupancy tax was put in place during an era when government was
