I warned you! California legislator wants to TRIPLE Vehicle License Fees!

[MMD]

Touted as a test of the new Democratic supermajority in Sacramento, South Bay state Sen. Ted Lieu plans to introduce a measure to triple vehicle license fees.

The constitutional amendment would restore the 2 percent vehicle license fee slashed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger after he won office partly on that pledge.

The 1.35 percent transportation system user fee increase would generate an estimated $3.5 billion to $4 billion annually for roads and public transit in yet-to-be-decided proportions, Lieu said.

Buoyed by the Democratic supermajority achieved just last week, Lieu, D-Redondo Beach, plans to introduce the legislation in either December or January. He envisions the Legislature will approve the amendment and place it before voters in November 2014.

"It would be a test to see what the two-thirds (majority) Legislature means," Lieu told the editorial board of the Los Angeles News Group.

Aside from the name calling, I'm still not sure how the fuck a political section benefits a boating website. I certainly would never think of going to www.mcdonalds.com to learn about nutrition.

Why would anyone come to www.hotboat.com to learn about how California is overtaxing its residents??

Here's your opportunity MMD to convince me.

I've also noticed that 90% of the people who post in the PRF of other forums are not even boaters.
