My California election ballot: the propositions
Liberty, efficiency and respect for the commons - these are my guiding principles as a voting citizen.
I don't believe in moralizing through legislation, and I prefer pragmatism over idealism for its own sake.
It's also crucial to contextualize every policy decision, to consider its costs as well as benefits, and to scrutinize the players, profiteers and motives behind each argument.
All that said, hopefully we can all appreciate our shared goal for the flourishing of humankind.
The California mid-term election ballot is here, and I offer an explanation for the seven propositions:
Prop 1: Yes to officially legalizing reproductive autonomy
Prop 26: Yes to decriminalizing sports betting on tribal lands
Prop 27: Yes to decriminalizing sports betting online, taxed for state funds
Prop 28: Unsure about $1 billion specifically for K-12 arts/music education
Prop 29: No to overcomplicating dialysis clinics
Prop 30: Yes to taxing multimillionaire earners to fund electric vehicle infrastructure and to fight wildfires
Prop 31: No to prohibition on certain tobacco/nicotine products
