Could it possibly be true? Is there some limit to the amount of progressive government "help" that finally crosses the threshold of what the residents of California are willing to tolerate? It may be too soon to get your hopes up just yet, but the Daily Caller is reporting that out in the Golden State, yet another set of crippling gasoline taxes and license fees were passed recently and the peasants seem to be revolting. There are signatures being gathered for a recall of one of the Democrats who helped enact the measure and a separate initiative, if successful, would repeal the new taxes.
...
There's an old saying about adding straws to the back of a camel until it finally breaks. When it comes to taxes and fees, the residents of California have been seeing straws heaped upon them for generations now, but it just may be possible that the limit has been reached. I'm not saying that we should expect to see a constitutional carry law passing there any time soon or a sudden surge in support for Trump's border wall, but at least it's a start. Having the voters recall a single Democrat and repeal a tax package which was passed by their representatives should send shock waves through the California Democratic Party. Once the word gets around that the peasants are no longer satisfied with being kicked in the teeth, there might actually be a shred of accountability coming into play.
Or at least we can dream, right?
