    Default Dear California State Legislature

    Dear Legislature:

    I realize you have overspent horribly over the years and are now paying the price for that. I'll keep a lookout for things you could do to reduce your spending. I discovered one yesterday. My new desk chair had a tag that aid it complied with the regulations of the California Home Furnishings Agency. I would bet you could get by just fine without that agency. Other states do. I would have provided this advice through your web site but you don't enable communication on the site so I'm posting it here in the hopes that someone will find it.

    If I discover anything else, I'll post it here. If I were a California resident, I could probably find thousands of them but it's harder for people in other states to know the details of what is going on there.

    Gun laws are a sore spot with me.

    I don't think you've seen anything yet, Bob. I'm so convinced the liberals intend to destroy gun ownership during the next year or two that I've already sold off about 80% of my collection. I think that, when it happens, they will confiscate all the guns. That's what they did in Australia, as an example. Don't forget, the purpose of the second amendment was help citizens defend themselves against a government gone out of control. Luckily that's never happened. But we are as close to it as I have ever seen in my lifetime.

    If you've sold off your gun supply, no doubt my husband is the one buying them. He says, it's to keep us safe when this country goes in the direction it is headed and he thinks that is soon. Meanwhile I feel like I'm living in a gun safe.

    Dear Governor,

    I'm not a Californian but since I'm being harrased by your state I feel not only justified but compelled to write.

    Your revenue department is trolling the internet for business addresses in other states and asking them to collect taxes for your state. The letters are actually threatening. Sorry, I'm not going to collect sales tax for your state or any state other than my own. I'm not going to comply with your threatening letters either. It is a disreputable thing your are doing.

    I'll give you one small piece of advice. I have no idea what is going in your state. I do know that it is infected with the worst, money spending legislature in the U.S. and that they have overdone the spending to a monstrous degree. Obviously you have a need to do some serious cuts in spending. Yesterday I received a desk chair that had a tag on it telling me that it complied with the regulations of the California Home Furnishing Agency or something like that. There's a perfect and easy cut for you. All the other states get along fine without such an agency. I think yours can also.

    Stop harrassing me and I'll stop emailing.
    Best of luck.


    Here's a copy for you. Thanks for the link.

    I believe it was Thomas Jefferson who said if the people fear the government, that is tyranny. If the government fears the people, that is liberty. Our constitution was designed around that belief. Unfortunately, the government is trying to change that balance in its favor. I've never seen a governmental power grab like we are seeing now in my life. Scares the heck out of me. I guess that's tyranny.
