Great, another special election. Don’t these things cost the taxpayer money to hold?
Anyways, I want to know how people feel about the proposals. 1F is extremely popular (Limiting pay raises for legislature in deficit years). The others, not so much.
Aside from 1F, I’m leaning no on all of them, to send them back to the drawing board. 1C is like paying your rent with your credit cards. 1D and 1E are like taking money from kids and the mentally handicapped for the general fund. This is a shell game. What we really need is:
1) True, deep cuts to spending, especially administrative.
3) A stronger version of 1A that forces lowered spending in tough times and earmarked rainy day savings in good times to prevent the expansion of government.
Republicans, you have a big opportunity here. Long term your prospects on social issues in California are dim (Gay marriage, marijuana legalization, abortion). However, if your party can truly become the party of fiscal responsibility and small government, you might have a chance to take the state legislature. Right now Dems are the party of reckless spending and tax hikes, while Republicans are the party of reckless spending and reckless tax cuts. No one wants to be a grown up and cut spending while maintaining taxes. Who will step up?
Vote no on everything. Our “representatives” have hijacked the system to such an extent that we do not know what we are voting for. Try to read the actual text of the measures. If you understand any of them let me know. They always say one thing but in the end they do what they want. Remember how the lottery was going to provide all that money to the schools?
