Bwahahaha!
"In addition to a 15% payroll tax, Sacramento is looking at a 2.3% business tax on gross sales receipts."
Look at that last bit carefully: the new tax is on revenue, not profit.
I'm sure this will pose no problem for California-based businesses.
Totally unrelated: is that Greg Abbott I hear?
But wait, it gets even better (for certain values of "better"):
"The state will also impose a new 2.3% sales tax on top of a statewide average sales tax of 8.44%"
By the way, this is a regressive type of tax, meaning that it will disproportionally affect (ie hurt) the poor.
