Don't ever come to the People's Republic of California. That's the sales tax here in LA too, plus the highest property taxes in the country (in dollars per person) and a HUGE income tax.
You'd think with all that money coming in we could, you know, fix the roads and keep the hospitals open, buy books for kids and pay our teachers.
