Why don’t we discuss literally all of the other tax restrictions that voters *themselves* have embedded into the state Constitution over the last 40 years, making it exceedingly difficult to pass anything except for things that affect a hyper-narrow part of the tax base?!
agree it’s always worth talking about the failures of direct democracy in california, but also think there’s some value in parsing the specifically heinous and unjust tax we just passed. i’m hoping animation here will lead to vigilance, finally.
I doubt your vigilance comment. Tech is notoriously terrible at producing turnout, which would then get the votes to shape policy.
