Big 5 Has A “Deal” – But It’s Not Over

The Sacramento Bee has sent out an alert saying that there is a budget deal.  What does this mean?  I guess we’ll find out.  But I am troubled because the theory is that any "deal" means Republicans "blessing" massive tax increases.  If you think taxes are a bad idea, NOW is the time to call your Republican Senator and Assemblymember. 

The dynamic of a "deal" is that the Big 5 members agree to take a product to their respective caucuses.  Billions of dollars in tax increases should be a "work product" soundly rejected by the Senate and Assembly Caucuses.

Republicans cannot afford the damage to our brand name that comes with being the facilitators of a massive tax increase.  We’ll lose seats next year for sure, don’t you think?

    I sense a tax revolt at hand if this so called deal has any new taxes.
