California's Prop. 90 is an outrageous fraud.

<p>For anyone in California still trying to figure out the phonebook-sized election packet before voting Tuesday, I’ve got a warning for you. Prop. 90 - which is disguised as a means of protecting homeowners from having their property seized by crooked politicians - is actually a colossal fraud. California already has legal protection against the crooked politicians - I should know, I have successfully defended an eminent domain case in court and beat the city’s land grab attempt. (Yeah - the liberal judge ruled that the city broke the law and ruled they had no right to take the property.) </p>

<p>But Prop. 90 isn’t about that. Obscure provisions hidden deep in the text would authorize a huge transfer of wealth from the taxpayers to a small group of wealthy landowners, and cripple environmental and other protections in the process. It is about the worst, and sneakiest, law I can imagine, and if its actual intent weren’t concealed behind a self-serving bunch of BS I doubt that anyone would think twice about voting for it.</p>

<p>Beware!</p>

<p>Thanks, kluge. I already voted against it on my absentee ballot. I’m so sick of these propositions, I’m about ready to refuse to sign any petition outside my Trader Joes from now on, just out of protest. Ugh.</p>

<p>We need a proposition to limit propositions!</p>

<p>90 is scary, one guy with lots of money is going around the country with this “proposition” - it is wrecjing havoc in Oregon</p>

<p>Okay, I’d sign that petition. :)</p>

<p>[arch tone with pop culture references] I’m so not a California resident. However, Kluge’s argument is so persuasive that I’m taking advantage of your lax election rules out there and voting with Kluge, even though I live in Pennsylvania. PM me if you want to know how to do this. It’s easy.

<p>Man, I so want to vote in your election, driver. Does that work the other way around?</p>

<p>Yeah, Howard Long’s b.s. shtick. I thought it was a simple response to Kelo until I read more about it. My D actually twigged to it before I did.</p>

<p>I’d think about trading votes with you Driver except that Swann, Santorum, and Weldon are all going down anyway. No gain in it for me.</p>
