Short of a total #Calexit (@YesCalifornia @Vote_CNP @calexitdreaming @CalExitAmerica) cut Fed taxes paid, essentially cutting California income drain to an expectedly hostile Federal administration, as one incremental and likely powerful step.
If blue-state taxpayers expect Fed taxes will not fund Fed budget of state/city projects, then minimizing Federal taxes paid using any and all legal methods available is a reasonable pre-emptive tactic, including for tax year 2016 NOW.
@carlmalamud “often” feels unreliable in 2016.
Exec branch/appointees can slow/block disbursal, despite budget alloc.
21d. I expect huge cuts (down to 0?) in Federal funding of blue state projects e.g. SF @Central_Subway. More: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Subway says:
“The project is funded primarily through the Federal Transit Administration’s New Starts program.”
and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Transit_Administration notes:
“Headed by an Administrator who is appointed by the President of the United States, the FTA functions through a Washington, D.C. …”
Thus a newly appointed FTA Administrator could presumably cut or delay such funding, arbitrarily.
