California voters

[vvvexation]

I've mostly figured out how I'm voting on Tuesday, but I'm still undecided on Props. 1A, 61, and 63. Anyone want to argue me into a position on those?

While we should be getting the money from somewhere else--we aren't. And in the meantime between now and when we do get it from where we're supposed to, there are people suffering from illnesses they can't control, and no money allocated to help them.

Most of the millionaires in CA live here for a reason--primarily the social life in SF and LA, the business in Silicon Valley, or because they're Hollywood actors. While they can afford to fly back and forth, it's pretty likely they won't think it worth the hassle. The cost of daily/weekly transportation from another state or country would often equal the amount of the tax, after all.

To clarify: Wehn I say "no money allocated to help them," what I mean is no money that is reaching them. There is money there, but it doesn't reach the people it's supposed to, most of the time. There's no guarantee that it suddenly will if this prop passes, unfortunately, but I'm trying to be hopeful here.
