California State Controller John Chiang offers this daily tax tracker to follow personal income taxes, sales and use taxes and corporate taxes -- the three major sources of revenue for the State.
The site will be updated regularly throughout each business day. Preliminary posts use dollar figures from tax administration agencies, while the following day the Controller will post reconciled (actual cash) figures. The latest figures are always available via direct download. Preliminary sales tax figures, along with personal income tax withholdings will be available by 10:30 a.m., followed by total personal income and corporate tax receipts, along with final sales tax numbers between 1:30 and 4:00 p.m. the same business day.
The chart on the right of this screen tracks the cumulative total of income, sales and corporate tax and compares it against estimated benchmarks for the month.

Who pays the income tax? There are many ways to answer this question.
According to FTB's annual report in 2011, there were 2.4 million taxpayers with adjusted gross income (AGI) exceeding $100,000. They accounted for 15.8 percent of the total 15.0 million residential taxpayers. Cumulatively, they reported $592 billion of the $982.1 billion (60.3 percent) in the year's AGI. Given the State's tax structure, these same taxpayers had $37.2 billion of the $43.9 billion (84.6 percent) of the year's residential income tax liability.
Snap that's a lot of money. I'd hate to be paying too much than I'm supposed too for my taxes. I've already got enough money spent on other things. http://www.johnlister.com/services
