SEAN HANNITY (HOST): You're happy paying the highest income taxes in the country? You have prop 13.
CALLER: But not property taxes. Property taxes --
HANNITY: Okay, follow me. You're okay with paying the highest income taxes in the country, the highest sales taxes in the country, the highest gas taxes in the country? You're paying more than twice per gallon than I pay in my free state of Florida. You're okay with that?
CALLER: Do you have a sales tax?
HANNITY: Okay, the highest sales tax in the country is California. The highest income tax is California.
CALLER: It's 7%.
HANNITY: The highest gas tax is California. Why don't you just answer? Are you happy with that? You're okay with that?
CALLER: I mean --
HANNITY: You have some of the worst schools in the country. Your homeless problem is so out of control all over your state. And if you're not aware of it, you're not getting outside of where you live in Orange County. You have some of the worst schools in the country. You pay tens of billions of dollars in services for illegal immigrants because you're a sanctuary state. Are you okay with all of that?
CALLER: I never said I was okay with all that. I said where I live here in California and the place where I live in, I'm very happy with that.
HANNITY: Then stay there. Then don't leave. I wouldn't want you to bring your crazy politics to my free state of Florida. Stay right where you are.
CALLER: How are we talking about politics? I never mentioned what I am or my politics. Are you just assuming that?
HANNITY: Okay. If you're okay with the highest sales taxes and gas taxes and you're okay with some of the worst schools in the country, some of the worst crime rates in the country, the highest homeless rate in the country. You have these outdoor drug dens all over southern and northern California. People shooting up in the streets. If you're okay with all of that, then go stay there. Don't move. Let me ask you. Do you know anybody in the Pacific Palisades whose home burned to the ground?
CALLER: Actually, I do. I actually do. I actually do.
HANNITY: Well, let me ask you. Are you upset with your state that they don't practice the science of forestry and clear out the debris? Are you upset with the fact that homes could have been saved if the fire hydrants had water in them and the reservoir wasn't empty?
