Yeah, I'm sure we'll both be laughing when we both see the results of just blindly voting for reforms without bothering to look at the details.
If you're a business or property owner, you already do feel or have felt the effects and there will be more to come.
Norm,
I don't understand your criticism in the context of this thread, which is about some initiatives that are long overdue and great for California.
I am a conservative Californian. I am more conservative than Arnold and don't agree with him on everything, but I admire him for taking on the public employee unions. If Prop 75 passes, we eventually will be able to cut some spending--ie, these ridiculous public employee unions.

I don't think I've ever just blindly voted for something. I usually consider myself pretty informed. Within that framework however, we can't know the future. We have to make our best estimates. We wouldn't have to go this route if the politicians actually did their jobs properly.

I'm not but my mother-in-law is. There's definitely been some good news under Arnold, particularly in regards to workers comp costs. Also the overall economy and business climate has improved for her (Arnold's doing? Not all -- but some. I'd expect that would not have been as positive under Davis)
