California Special Election

Californians are being bombarded yet again with ballot-box governance. Why do we have elected officials if everything is going to the polls? Here's the problem... Nobody has the time to delve into all of the confusing double-speak that ladles propositions and other assorted ballot measures. Hell, 95% of people don't even open their flipping mail and pay their BILLS let alone ponder and analyze election material.

....and why should we????

It's filled with so much jargon and is so purposely complicated that they've even managed to make the populace's knee-jerk angry "no" votes come out to be a "yes" in their favor by twisting text and words around. It seems that no matter what, the outcome for all ballot measures leaves the average joes who actually hold jobs and pay taxes out in the cold. The poor get everything handed over to them, and the rich get loopholes galore.

Nobody knows what in the hell they're voting for anymore.... I do. The message loud and clear is "fuck you working guy -- GIVE ME MORE MONEY!"
