[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it really free?[/quote] it's free to the kids, and to the families who don't make much since they don't pay much in taxes. CA has a $97 billion surplus. It's nice that they are using it to feed kids. I grew up in CA and was lower income. I remember vividly being in 1st grade and being hungry and couldn't wait till snack time when they gave us a few crackers. This was before Prop 13 passed. Once that passed, the free snacks went out the window, along with a bunch of other services and programs. [/quote] So where did the money come from? Trees?[/quote] are you being purposefully obtuse or are you just dumb? There are a lot of rich people and companies in CA. Most of the rich people still live in CA. You may hear about a handful of wealthy people leaving CA, but by and large, a lot of them are still there. The stories you hear about people leaving CA are about MC to UMC people who are getting priced out of CA. We got priced out of CA, and we had a HHI of $360K. We wanted more house for our money, and the schools are underfunded (prop 13). I know Trumpsters like to use CA as a punching bag for being a high tax state, but CA has a lot to offer. I would have loved to have stayed, but we just wanted something different. I'll remind you that Trump lived in NYC (a high tax area) for the majority of his life, and only left because he essentially got pushed out of NYC. They hate his guts. Also, the county of Palm Beach in FL that he moved into went for Biden. Ask yourself why Trump didn't move to a deep red area. Don't think too hard, though, you might hurt yourself.[/quote]
