Beat me to it.

In MA, the people have a voice, and they occasionally vote the right thing. And then the governor, or the judges, or the state legislature says, "Nice try. We're not going to pay attention to you peasants."

Even if this passes, no change will occur, and the sheeple here will tolerate the abuse.

In 2002, lawmakers halted a gradual income tax rollback approved by voters two years earlier, prompting howls that they were bucking an edict from the populace.
