California taxpayers are facing a daunting reality: a state government that seems to have a bottomless appetite for their money. This episode of the Howard Jarvis Radio Show delves into the latest developments in the fight for taxpayer rights, with HJTA President Jon Coupal joining host Susan Shelley to discuss the importance of Proposition 43, a ballot measure aimed at closing a loophole that's made it easier for local governments to raise taxes without a two-thirds vote.

The conversation touches on the history of Proposition 13, the landmark tax reform measure that's been a cornerstone of California's tax policy for decades. However, a recent court decision has created a loophole that allows local governments to bypass the two-thirds vote requirement, making it easier to raise taxes. Jon and Susan discuss the implications of this loophole and why it's essential to close it.

The episode also explores the high-speed rail project, a multibillion-dollar endeavor that's been plagued by delays, cost overruns, and controversy. Jon shares his expertise on the project's many issues, from its lack of private sector investment to its hidden tax on gasoline and electricity. He argues that it's time to pull the plug on this project and focus on more pressing infrastructure needs.
