On 21 January I posted an episode called Affordability, The Vaginization of Virginia, Davos and the Gay Black Man (his words). Featured in the post was a list of initiatives the inevitably disastrous new governor, Abigail Spanberger plans to unleash on the commonwealth.

I promised I’d take a deep dive into the list. But it will take more than an episode to do it. While it is critical that Virginians see this, so they can watch it be rolled out, it is equally important for the rest of the country to see it and here’s why.

When we look at Europe and the UK and what is happening to their society many clutch their pearls and say, “Oh! Poor Germany or poor England.” What they fail to realize is all the same stuff is happening in our Blue cities today. We are becoming England and they are rapidly becoming an Islamic shit hole.

Likewise, what is happening to Virginia, if we let them get away with this insane list, WILL HAPPEN TO YOU! ALL OF YOU!

Virginia was formerly a reliably Red state, now seen as a moderate Purple state. But when Spanberger gets through even half of her utterly retarded list, you won’t recognize what is left of the Commonwealth’s political landscape and social fabric.

And when it all fails, the authors of the disaster will lie. They’ll say the ideas are fine. We just have to throw more money at each and every issue. Lower the threshold for who gets nailed with higher taxes. Do more of all that will be the undoing of a once great place. And the people who think they are the beneficiaries will fight to keep the nonsense as well. Look out Tennessee! Look out Carolinas! Even parts of Texas are already seeing this kind of self destruction tarted up as social justice and progressive thinking.

Po River supports the P4B!

So…To the List!

Item first: New 4.3% sales tax on Uber Eates, Amazon etc. deliveries. This will be ON TOP of the 5.3% sales tax already charged for the underlying product. As with all targeted sales taxes, there will be a coinciding reduction in the popularity of the thing being taxed, eliminating any REAL benefit the state might have gleaned.

But there is a funny part in this item and the existing sales tax as well. For years, here on Substack and in my old WordPress days, I have constantly hounded the people in Northern Virginia and later Tidewater to stop voting against their best interest. The thinking that supports their vote is this: Big (federal) government is good for employment in those two areas. And the party of big government and growing bureaucracy that sustains it are the Democrat regulation monkeys. Accordingly, they vote Dem out of habit.

Yet, in those two areas, Virginians pay more in sales tax (6%). And the new tax on deliveries will be substantially more for the same suckers. That’s the penalty for getting a good education and seeking favorable employment. The Left in this country can’t do math. They don’t understand that at the same tax rate, someone making $200k pays far more, and in this case buys far more, then someone making $50k. So the tax burden is proportional. But not to the Dem elite. In their minds if you are successful, you MUST be punished.

Even as they read this, folks in the high tax areas are making up silly rationalizations in their heads, trying to convince themselves that it is still smart to vote for tax and waste Dems. They can’t admit voting Dem was wrong. They know it. They just can’t admit it. It’s hard to break with the tribe. You catch less grief in this world changing religions (unless your family is a dark ages version of Islam or Haredi Hebrew.). I speak from experience. So, well-to-do Northern Virginians soldier on into self immolation because being seen as obedient to the tribe trumps saving their future…or their kids future.

But wait!!! There’s more!!!

On that same list is the increased taxes on people making more then $600k per year. And a full 10% on people making $1M. Immediately people doing well in Virginia will be looking for the exits. Tax accountants will make a killing finding loopholes and deductions. Tax avoidance will be fun again!

Spanberger, who I frequently refer to as the boney ass, white, liberal shrew, also plans lots of NEW taxes. She is counting on you, and your laziness and lack of intellectual curiosity, to not notice them. The humdinger among these is the investment tax ON TOP of you income tax. Presently, when you take money out of an investment or savings account which has appreciated, that money is added to your income to be taxed each year.

NOW, you’ll get your regular hit on the income, PLUS an additional 3.8%. AND it will likely be higher in Northern Virginia and Tidewater! YOU SCHMUCKS. I know many of you. I know you save and invest well and aggressively. This one will be the biggest slap in the face . But you’ll kneel again, saying, “Well, the federal government hits me with that same tax. So I guess it’s alright.” When you should fighting BOTH as being disincentives to investment.

Then there will be new hotel tax. There will be a tax on admissions to a “wide variety” of events and venues. Considering how much we pay for events these days, that should give the Dems lots of your money to give to someone else. But that will also push the cost of going to events to a new threshold that more people CANNOT afford, or are not stupid enough to pay.

So with just the issue of YOUR money, these presumptuous, pompous, self-righteous “beautiful people” intend to take a lot more of it from you. Youngkin left the BAWLS with a huge surplus. There is no need to raise taxes in the Commonwealth. And mark my words, if Spanberger gets her agenda through, or even a portion of it, you will see Richmond reports deficits by 2030. Big ones.

Cheers!
