I am a business owner from Calif. When Arnold was in office he doubled the DMV fees. This killed me since I owned a fleet of vehicles and new personal vehicles and an RV. The RV registration was $1800 a year.
As a business owner and native Californian I left the pick pocket state and moved to Florida. My registration on the RV is now less than $90 a year. And I do not pay State income tax.

Not only did Arnold repeal it on his first day in office, he made that repeal retroactive back to the day the new rate had taken effect under Davis and issued refunds to everybody who paid the higher rate.
