California Propositions (Caution Political Thread)

[Essex502]

Simple:
Prop 55 - NO - we can't afford it at this time.
Prop 56 - NO - we can't afford it EVER!
Prop 57 - YES - we can't afford NOT to.
Prop 58 - YES - Yes, Yes, YES! We must have balanced budgets and quit spending money we don't have!

I agree, however 57 is not as cut and dry as the others and I can understand how many smart people would still oppose it. 58 only goes into effect if 57 passes and it's really very weak. I'm leaning twards voting for 57 and 58 but I think both have major flaws and I don't see much good coming from them.
Of course 55 is a definate no and 56 is just plain rotten.:devil: :burningm:

57 and 58 are bullshit deals too....Why can't they just stop spending money they don't have? They created this crisis so they can get us out of this crisis without more money from bonds or taxes. We go without when we don't have the money, why can't they do the same?

Prop 57 restructures the current debt to allow the state time to pay it back without going bankrupt. It's not about borrowing more more to spend on new follies but to restructure debt sorta' like taking a home equity loan to pay off your credit card bills before YOU go bankrupt. I don't think we have much choice in whether or not to do it as it needs to be done.
Prop 58 makes balanced budgets a requirement each year.
