2018 CA Governor's race: on Corporations


Delaine Eastin: Change corporate tax structure to fund education

[Six gubernatorial candidates from two parties participated in one debate]: When Eastin talked about the need to make changes in Proposition 13's corporate tax structure to provide money for education improvements like mandatory full-day kindergarten and universal preschool, it was possible to hear the Republicans muttering, "more taxes, more taxes."

Gloria La Riva: Corporations, banks and the Pentagon dominate society

For too long, corporations, banks and the Pentagon have dominated society. The result: Half of all people live in or near poverty. Housing cost is skyrocketing. Immigrants get scapegoated. The prison population and police repression grow. The environment is being destroyed. Enough! Vote socialist! Get involved!

Travis Allen: Private business should take over public rest stops

I am committed to providing every opportunity to incentivize investment throughout California and encouraging our state to utilize innovative solutions to address community needs. Not only is this approach an environmentally friendly transit solution, it benefits any area of California that may want to pursue private investment and provide new transportation infrastructure without bigger government or new taxes.
