The items on the ballot.
Will have to take closer look at them.
My default is to vote no unless I have good reason to vote yes.
The LAT has come out against Prop 91.
They have come out in favor of Prop 93.
I hope to post some of my own thoughts soon.
UPDATE: SF Chronicle has come against all of the ballot measures!
UPDATE: McClintock who has libertarian leanings posts his recommendations on the ballots.
I'm torn about 94-95-96-97. My libertarian instincts track with McClintock, "I’m not a gambler, but it’s none of government’s business how people spend their money. I’m tired of government restrictions on enterprise, and I’m tired of government telling us what we can and can’t do. And our economy desperately needs the new jobs and investment."
On the other hand, as a matter of social well-being, is our society better with MORE casinos?
How about this for a "creative" libertarian reason to be against 94-97: if the California government fails to get more revenue because 94-97 doesn't pass, then the government can't get bigger and will have to more wisely spend the billions it already gets?
