Sounds like they should stop sending the federal government their revenue. California sends more than they receive. Spend it on the same programs directly instead, no change for those programs or Californians.
Trump isn't used to not having any leverage, so he just does the same shit all the time and it constantly backfires now because enough people recognize that.
Federal government taxes individuals and businesses. States legally can't stop the fed from taking taxes.
Sixteenth Amendment.
No taxation without Representation. Declaration of Independence.
When you're here, you're family. Olive Garden.
It's all about family. Dominic Toretto.
They still have their seats in congress and the house. They are represented. I agree with the idea, just not legal.
Also fine with California saying fuck this place and going on their own. Dont blame them, but this admin would probably roll in with tanks. Millions die..
Russia rubbing their hands in glee, all those years of social media manipulation finally coming to fruition.
