Danny Boy is singing my tune.
The same Vulture Capitalists are backing Prop 88, the parcel tax, to fund their educational "ventures". They also brought us Prop 71 stem-cell research bonds ($3 Billion) after passing Prop 39 eliminating the 2/3 vote requirement for bonds. They are also behind the Global Warming 'cap and trade' push in California.

They happen to be liberals who see nothing wrong with keeping their wealth and having other people foot the bill for their dreams of transforming society.

It's bad enough when the social engineering begins as some politician's bright idea of the "public good".
I guess the downside to Californian's ability to put Propositions directly before the people is that anything that can be "sold" to the public can become law.
Adding up the voters that pay virtually nothing in taxes, plus those other voters that uncritically buy into any environmental argument here in California, there is probably a superbloc of votes readily at hand.
