The costs of ballot initiatives should be described in per capita numbers, not absolute numbers. Bad: "this project will cost $8b." Good: "this project will cost the average taxpayer $3k over two years." "Is this worth $8b?" is very different from "would you pay $3k for this?"

Oops you are right. $1,700. The tax calculator I used was buggy. Still, that means a $10b/year measure would cost you ~$85 a year, and that's not something people would throw away trivially I imagine.
