I think the phrase he uses that has me confused is this:

But such a reform MUST repair the 2/3 vote requirement for all tax increases...

What does he mean by "repair"?

Just a guess . . . Local governments have discovered and/or invented all kinds ways around the 2/3 requirement. Like calling the tax a fee instead of what it is. Maybe Tom means it should squash the loopholes.
