Big Government proponents mentioned:
Sen. Dianne Feinstein
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger
former Republican Gov. Pete Wilson
American Association of Retired Persons
League of Women Voters of California
California Chamber of Commerce
California Teachers Association
I suppose they’ll be adding Jerry Brown, Villaraigosa, Newsom, Nunez, Maldonado and the rest of the liberals to this list, as well.
Dontcha just love this one-party “post-partisanship” stuff? /s
California breaks my heart everyday.
Prop 98 BumP
I do not oppose eminent domain. If the government needs to condemn property to expand a highway, build a school, or other general public need then they should be able to do so - at market prices.
They must not be able to condemn private property to turn the property over to private concerns such as shopping mall and highrise developers.
Does Prop 98 prevent the government from the latter, while permitting the former? Where is the language of this bill?
