The High Cost of Living
Summary
The High cost of living due to taxs, fees and regressive burdons put on business get passed along to residents.
This is Rick Herrick candidate for the State Assembly and I don’t have to tell you that California is teetering on the brink of self destruction. The homelessness epidemic is just a symptom. The real affliction is the ridiculous California cost of living. As Mayor and a business owner I know that we can do better. High property taxes, gas taxes, burdensome regulations and high utility costs are making housing in California unaffordable. Sacramento has put us in hole and yet the coastal politicians won’t stop digging, and by the way digging into our pockets. I am Rick Herrick and as your Assemblyman I won’t be going to Sacramento to make friends, I am asking for your vote so together we can take a stand. With your help, we can be a great state again.
