Prop 1F - why not vote yes? Is there some fine print I'm missing?

[Duer 157099]

I'm inclined to vote no on all the rest, but what's the problem with 1F?

[stopbush]

1. Why are you voting against 1B?

[Duer 157099]

3. Because I cannot bring myself to vote for 1A

and 1B depends on the passage of 1A.

I have a child in public school, so I'm not unaware of what's at stake

2. Husband and I had

a conversation about just this, 15 minutes ago. We agreed that it would be a serious burn for this to pass while none of the others do, which is what I expect.

[Duer 157099]

4. That was sort of my feeling too

I'm very torn up about the 1B issue, and while I am very tempted to let them go for the quick fix, my gut just says no.

arrgh!

5. I voted yes on everything.

The lesser of two evils. I have two kids in public school, and our district is taking it on the chin.

We need a Constitutional convention in this state that returns us to representative government with decisions made by simple majority. Fuck these ballot initiatives and fuck the 2/3 threshold to get anything done.

6. My sister lives out there

and cancelled out your every vote. Sorry.

I don't know what all the props are, but I know what 1A is and can tell you I'd have voted against it if I lived out there. I will stand on my head for a week if it's passed and those "temporary" tax increases remain temporary.

8. The truth is that those of us who live "out here" in CA wouldn't need any tax increases

if we got back from the Feds what we pay out to the Feds.

Unfortunately, we're one of those states that sees its money going to fund state governments around the country who get back a lot more from the Feds than they pay in, all so the populations of those states can make fun of CA's budget problems.

10. I'm on your side.

I know you're getting screwed - I lived out there for three years.

Still, if I were there I wouldn't vote to give Aaaaaaaaaahnold any more of my (your) money than he already has.

7. I voted no on all. 1F was an insult.

It is obvious that they should not get a raise---EVER. We have to get the government into the hands of the people. Get corporations out of government. Throw the bums out!

9. 1A was a power grab by Arnold.

One man has no right to do what the legislature refuses to do.
