We live in a fee-based society (no thanks to the liberal left). Its just going to get worse. Soon we will be taxed on breathing excessive air.

Should you breathe in more then 500 cubic feet of air per day, you'll be taxed an additional $15/cubic foot. So far, exhaling is free (but give it time).

 

i was reading a book while crossing street this morning, i smell a new law will get me a ticket for this someday.

 

That's an old law though, I got pulled over for having blue city lights when I was in high school(1999)

 

I know that but I think it's bullS***!
They need lighten up alil

 

I agree, there are worse things going on in this state than modded cars

 

agreed, i wanna do red city lights, how much is that ticket. if its not much ill rock em anyway.

 

I think I payed $25 after "I fixed it"
don't really remember it was a while back

 

Is this post for real?

 

I don't like it when you guys get new laws, it means BC isn't far behind in having something pretty much the same.

 

Yes....why?

 

I guess they figure if someone has enough money to mod their cars, they can collect more money from them too. It's like being charged service charges...constantly...

 

With the new fiscal year coming up (July 1) and more proposed layoffs for the City of LA (where I'm located) and I presume other cities across the nation (Sactown as well), expect to see more cops pull you over for minor infractions. They're in dire straights to generate any type of revenue. Especially LAPD, they'll mark correctable offenses "non-correctable." This happened to me and I had to take a day off just to fight the ticket....

 

I wish there was something we could do

 

The state makes money with taxes, fees, penalties and fines. I actually don't have a huge problem with raising fines for stupidity like running a red or speeding in a school zone. I do have a problem with them raising everyday fees and taxes for things like property taxes, sales tax, etc... or coming up with laws that penalize simply because they need more money. Getting a ticket for texting in the crosswalk is a prime example of this.
