Because of California tax laws. He is 16 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 2: going to owe more than one hundred and seventy eight 17 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 2: thousand dollars for helping lift Sattle do that twenty nine 18 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 2: to thirteen victory was at it over the pates at 19 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 2: the Levi Stadium in Santa Clara. This is something that 20 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 2: are darling Democrats put together called the jock tax Yeah. 21 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. 22 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 2: According to the all sources, Donald's bill to the Golden 23 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 2: State ultimately ultimately will wind up being just one thousand 24 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: dollars short of a quarter million dollars. These are jock 25 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: taxes which force pro athletes who don't live in the 26 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 2: state the fork over percentages of their yearly income based 27 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 2: upon the number of days they work in California. Son 28 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 2: of a bitch, I'm telling you, nah, oh man, keep 29 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 2: your hand off that button. They can fire me if 30 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 2: they want. Uh, you know, I mean the days that 31 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 2: these players have been in the state have been dubbed 32 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 2: duty days by our legislator's duty days, not duty like crap, 33 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 2: although that should be duty duty, like you're going to 34 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 2: pay a duty because you're playing here. And the Seahawks, 35 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 2: you know, they you know, torch they touched, they torchedown. 36 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,519 Speaker 2: They should have torched down. They touchdown in North cal 37 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 2: I think was on February first, and dartled and the 38 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 2: rest of his team accumulated eight days total playing time 39 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 2: in Santa Clara Sunday night. So the Seahawks are going 40 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,119 Speaker 2: to a mass even more in twenty twenty six due 41 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 2: to games that they're going to be playing in the 42 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 2: state next season. And it's been reported why Donald who 43 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 2: is in the middle of a you know, three year, 44 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 2: one hundred and five million dollar contract with the Seahawks. 45 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 2: Ultimately he is going to lose like seventy one thousand 46 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 2: dollars a day, possibly for lifting his ever, first ever 47 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 2: Lombardi Trophy. But geez, this is you know, probably with 48 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 2: that kind of money that he makes, he'll pay the 49 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 2: freight and move on. But I think this is absolutely disgusting, disgusting, 50 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 2: beyond belief. The jocktacks. They come to California to play, 51 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 2: They come to California to entertain us, and I don't 52 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 2: care what they're making. And because they come into California 53 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 2: and they play, and they were you know, they practiced 54 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: in California, our state, which is going bankrupt thanks to 55 00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: the Democrats in the Assembly, the supermajority, and the two 56 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 2: last governors that we've had. Hey, it's a fact. I 57 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: don't care what you say, I don't care what you believe. 58 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 2: You can call me crazy, you can call me every 59 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 2: name under your breath for saying this. They are thoroughly 60 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 2: responsible for dooming this state to its end. At one time, 61 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:24,559 Speaker 2: the greatest state in the Union. You know, I've mentioned 62 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 2: this before. I've had so many trips overseas over years, 63 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 2: the years, and the last couple when people, oh, California, California, 64 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 2: and I sit there and I'll have a beer with 65 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 2: somebody in the pub when that hear where I'm from, 66 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 2: and I'll tell them what's going on here to California. 67 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 2: You know what they do. They cancel their trips to California, 68 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 2: That's what they do. And then I help them pick 69 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 2: out another place to go in America. That may sound 70 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 2: like crap. When my daughter and I were there July last, 71 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 2: I mean the July before last. Which pub it was? 72 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 2: I wasn't in my local, which is called the Herafort. 73 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 2: It's on the Gloucester Road. But it's another pub that 74 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 2: I like. Oh my god, oh oh oh oh. It 75 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: was the Prince, the Prince, the Prince Willie we call it. 76 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 2: And it's in the Horseley in Surrey. That's therea And 77 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: there were locals there, and I was sitting with my 78 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 2: dear friend Joanne, love of my life, dearest friend I've 79 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 2: ever had. Lady I met here in California. She was 80 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 2: visiting from England. She was seventeen I was twenty seven. 81 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 2: We have been the closest to friends, blood brother and 82 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 2: sister ever since. And her boyfriend Simon, and I was 83 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: with my daughter and there were people that were in 84 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 2: there and they were doing they didn't Yeah, we're Americans. 85 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 2: There are a lot, so many Americans in Surrey. But 86 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 2: when they hear we're California, they oh, California, California. And 87 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 2: it was this family of four, okay, and it was grandma, 88 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 2: mom and dad and a seven year old son, and 89 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 2: they're going to come out to California to see Disneyland. 90 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 2: And we told them what California was like now, full 91 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 2: of crime, full of crap, full of in a literal crap, 92 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: San Francisco in LA and they were crushed. They were crushed, 93 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 2: and we immediately sent them to Florida, where my friend 94 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 2: Joe said, they've already had their trip and they had 95 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 2: a marvelous time, and they thanked me and Grace for 96 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 2: rerouting them. And even though my daughter, who is of 97 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 2: the opposite political persuasion that I am, by a long shot, 98 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: she agreed, the state is no not what it is, 99 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 2: and it's thanks to politics. It's man made, and it's 100 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 2: this type of crap that we're doing to the athletes. 101 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 2: That is just such bull, you know. And I hope 102 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 2: next time I talked to Hilton, I'm gonna say, hey, 103 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 2: when you're a governor, there's something you got to do here, brother. 104 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 2: And it looks like he's going to be governor. Boy, 105 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 2: every Polly, it's Steve is Wow, he's doing well. And 106 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 2: some of you have finally figured out that he's had 107 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 2: to take a hiatus from KMJ because of equal time laws. Yeah. 108 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 2: I don't know why we were trying to cleverly disguise 109 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 2: that as something else, but it is what it is, 110 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 2: you know, and that may change if we can, you know, 111 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 2: if he can start paying for the time, and then 112 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 2: after he becomes governor, he can return to the one 113 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 2: hour shot, which by the way, he said he was 114 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 2: going to do and that doesn't cost anybody anything. That 115 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 2: would be wonderful to have the only radio program in 116 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: the country where the governor of that state pops on 117 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 2: once a week to talk the constituents. And he thinks 118 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 2: has a media guy. That's a great idea because of 119 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 2: the signals on its radio station, we get everywhere except 120 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 2: La and his thing about La is screw La. I 121 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: spent enough time there, they see me enough, I'll speak 122 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,679 Speaker 2: to them personally. Okay, great, you can get to everybody 123 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: else through the Ray Appleton program on KMJ, so that 124 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 2: I hope he sticks to that, because that would be 125 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 2: an honor. All right. We heard about the individuals getting 126 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 2: into the Mayor's raced down in Los Angeles, and there's 127 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 2: one in particular that was mentioned. Liz mentioned I have 128 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 2: got to talk to before I get out of here, 129 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 2: not talk to, but talk about. But phone calls first, 130 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: Phone calls first. You guys always rule, Brent boy, Josh 131 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 2: was telling me about what you're dealing with. Please explain 132 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 2: this one and my head'll probably blow off for the 133 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 2: third time of my shoulders today. 134 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: The right ahead, Yeah, Ray. I hope Steve Hilton can 135 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 1: do something about this, but I don't know. We left 136 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: England a long time ago for far left than what 137 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: we have right here in Fresno County, and I don't 138 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 1: think society even realizes this happens to tradespeople, air conditioning installers, 139 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: auto mechanics, flooring installers, all the trades people. So you 140 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 1: wonder why you can't trades person in California. Here's a 141 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: reason right here, what any of the tools, any of 142 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: the tools that were within your shop to work on cars, 143 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: to work on air conditioning, to work on windows, to 144 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: work on flooring, whatever cement. Presno County comes around and 145 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 1: taxes you on the tools that you own within your 146 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: shop every single year. 147 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 2: How much do they tax you? 148 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: There's there's probably no limit, but it's you know, a 149 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: couple of hundred dollars every year. The more tools you have. 150 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: If you're a big auto shop, like the big shops 151 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: in town, you pay a hefty tax. If you're a 152 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 1: small thing, I will tell you what I do. But 153 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,959 Speaker 1: if you're a small place like me, maybe it's two 154 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: hundred dollars a year. But it's every year on the 155 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: tools that you own, the value of the tools that 156 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: you own. 157 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 2: That's full. Yeah, that's just crap. How long has this 158 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 2: been going on? 159 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: I have no idea. I've been in business for thirty 160 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: years and it's been going on with me, you know, 161 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 1: over thirty years. 162 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,439 Speaker 2: And this is a county tax or a state tax. 163 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: Well, Presno County is the one that collects it. 164 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay, I'm going to look into this. 165 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's a little thing compared to these 166 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: pro athletes. But it's a lot of little businesses that 167 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: are getting smacked. It's just too much, right, you know 168 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: that much? 169 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 2: It is too much, all right, Bret.

There are 186 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 2: other states that do this as well, but California, Yeah, 187 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 2: by far and away, gouge is them more than anybody else. 188 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 2: But Minnesota, Oregon, New Jersey, New York, Hawaii, they all 189 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 2: do it to a certain degree, a couple of points. Florida, Texas, Washington, Nevada, 190 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 2: nothing like that. That's why there's a lot of sports 191 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 2: in those states. 192 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: Go on, Leo, No, I agree. 193 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,199 Speaker 3: I mean, we got so many professional sports teams here. 194 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 3: Anytime they go and play an away game, you know, 195 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 3: they're loving that. That's a good payday for them. I 196 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 3: mean getting tax. You know the court, you know, the 197 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 3: guy who just won the Super Bowl, the quarterback for 198 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 3: the for the Seahawks. I mean, it was one hundred 199 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 3: and something to seventy eight thousand or eighty something else. 200 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 2: Said eight thousand for yesterday, probably about a quarter million 201 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 2: to the time he's been here since February first. 202 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 3: Ridiculous, you know, just for being here. It's I mean, 203 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 3: but that's how they're treating everybody. So, I mean, do 204 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 3: you wonder why the starters aren't playing as many home games. 205 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 3: There's there's a reason why could be, all right, man, 206 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 3: and for the and for Brent who just called in, 207 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 3: I mean, that's a ridiculous tax. What I would do 208 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 3: is I would find a way to depreciate that on 209 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 3: my balance sheet as quickly as possible, just to say 210 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 3: it's it's it's hit his depreciation, try to find a 211 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 3: way around it. But we got to stop that kind 212 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 3: of gouging on small businesses. It's insane. 213 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hear you, especially by the depreciation and all that, 214 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 2: and that would be good advice for him. Hopefully he's 215 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 2: got some good big keepers, bro. Thanks Leo Zaki there, Bill, 216 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 2: thank you for waiting.
