Corporations buying laws in California

Been denied before, but this time they're going for the ballot initiative. Will Californians have the smarts to Vote NO? Or are they just as stupid as the rest of the country? This is going to be a nail Biter!

1. Ah yes, Prop 16, the PG&E protection Act

Today one of their drones was outside Ralphs trying to push it. I pointed out what it was.

"You are public employee?"

"No, but you're obviously a PG&E Employee."

We went slightly back and forth, he ended up leaving and I ended up fielding some questions.

3. It is so bad that I am voing no down the whole slate of

propositions.

In my mind the system should be just plain out scrapped.

But I don't know if it will go down, just hope it does.

I still spent fifteen minutes going over it, which was scary as hell... especially younger people, or older, I hate to say it, WHITE and MALE people, seem to be falling for it.

Not a poll though, let alone a scientific one.
