More crazy California news. Legislature is considering a wealth tax on residents, part-year residents, & anyone person who spends more than 60 days in the state. Those who move out of state will still be subject to tax for ten years.

This is a nice take until you die from drinking poison from your municipal water supply. You are right that state power is an issue - corporate power though, is equally bad if not worse.
