Schwarzenegger to consider "Flat Tax" for California

I came across an interesting article from the LA Times, courtesy of Drudge, about Arnold Schwarzenegger considering such "radical" proposals as a flat tax to overhaul the beleaguered state's tax codes.

From the LA Times.

LA Times-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said today that he would like to see such “radical” proposals come out of a commission now studying an overhaul of the state’s tax system. The governor told the editorial board of the Sacramento Bee that he hoped the commission would not be afraid to propose something like “a 15% straight tax.”

With all the fiscal problems facing California the attitude of some West Coasters seems to be shifting, at least fiscally. By all accounts, a Libertarian styled movement is generating among Cali's constituency.

Now, I am not saying that they will no longer be the Left Coast, just that it might be becoming the Liberaltarian Coast.

Strange brew.
