Lots of people are voting for Prop 19 because they really are tired of big government. They want lower taxes, fewer regulations, fewer cops, fewer prisons, lower or no public pensions, and fewer politicians even.
Government has no business in welfare or health care, including giving away drugs.
Don't be afraid of smaller government. For thousands of years, we had smaller government.
Don’t you get it? Prop 19 is bigger government. They will have to create a whole department so drug users can get drugs paid for by the tax payers. The courts will be filled with cases slamming businesses, because they don’t want employees who are under the influence. There are going to be even more unintended government regulations. If someone wants to take that drug in their home, and accept any consequences, that’s fine. But this bill doesn’t do that. This bill will grow government more than any other proposition this year.
