Thanks for posting!

Thought provoking on D and E.

agree on F and self-interest and ‘perverse’ angle.

I’m with you.

I posted it for information purposes and also because I like to hear the various arguments pro/con.

I did find the rationale interesting on D and E... “This measure irresponsibly rips off an irresponsible rip-off....”

LOL. California has sunk so low.

I agree... but I haven't changed my mind yet. Mostly, I'm opposed to stealing from voter approved intiatives. I'd rather just see an effort to rescind them entirely if they are wrong. In the case of 1D, "sticking it to Rob Reiner" is the most motivating reason to vote yes, LOL. I may do that before this is all over... I still have a couple weeks to decide.

“No” on everything is a safe and solid vote. Tom is making a mild case for D and E. They steal from one account (minor dollars in the scheme of things) to help fund the deficit. Those two props won’t make much difference one war or the other. I’m strongly opposed to all the others.

I thought the rationales on D and E were interesting, too, but this state is too screwed up to add rip-offs on top of rip-offs. It’s simpler for everyone to just vote NO on all 6 and give the “legislators” a choice: cut spending or fail.

Here’s how I look at it; if Sacramento wants it, it cannot be any good. I just voted NO on all six. I couldn’t care less that “mild arguments” can be made for 1D & 1E.

I'd support a proposition that turns California back into a part-time Legislature.

I bet all legislators will become anti-tax crusaders when they are forced to go and earn a living

I agree.

As much as I’d like to stick it to Meathead, I can’t take the chance of mistaking 1F for 1D or 1A and voting “yes” on the wrong proposition—

So it’s “No” on all of them.

Sometimes, the way they word them, you can't tell if yes means no or visa versa
