Both initiatives aim to repeal the tax increase, but the Cox-backed effort will also include a constitutional amendment that requires any future gas and car tax increases to win voter approval.

Hell, the State of California should have a “reverse sales/fuel tax” on vehicle fuel to encourage people to come and stay in this hell-hole and allow these butt-heads to continue in the lifestyle to which they’ve become accustomed.
Or, we could just have a “Pitchforks & Torches” party for the A**holes In Charge.
