The public has heard relatively little from Washington in recent months about the former President Barack Obama’s health care law, The Affordable Care Act, but that silence doesn’t mean elected officials have forgotten about it or that its future is certain. Republican lawmakers still have said the plan forces Americans to buy health insurance that they may not want or need and that many may not be able to afford. Democrats have said its benefits outweigh any downside. These days, the battleground over the law’s fate has s...

Like a bad penny, a plan to tax water keeps turning up in Sacramento. That’s right. Under two proposals circulating in the Capitol, California would start taxing the most fundamental resource on the planet. Such taxes would needlessly drive up costs for families already struggling to make ends meet and undermine the goals that proponents profess. Senate Bill 623 by state Sen. William Monning, D-Carmel, and a budget trailer bill supported by Gov. Jerry Brown would add a tax to local residential and business water bills in t...

Real estate has always been known as a “good investment” – if you’re able to hold on to it for a reasonable amount of time. We’ve historically had moments when that ‘reasonable amount of time’ was only a year, but generally speaking, it’s about five to 10 years to allow for the normal cycle of ups and downs to occur. But with the passage of new laws in 2017, your primary residence can now also be an income producer through the development of an “accessory dwelling unit” (A...
