When we don't understand something, we tend to ignore it. Putting our attention on something we barely understand is only a waste of time and energy, right? We will be voting for ballot propositions in November 2022 election. I proposed that you should vote NO to a proposition that is unclear what it can do for you. There is a chance that the proposition you do not fully understand will pass if you do not vote.
In today's episode, I address proposition 27, which is currently on the California ballot. With it, you can gamble on sports online from your laptop, tablet, mobile phone, or gaming console. Homeless people and drug addicts are said to benefit from it. It does not make sense to me that gambling institutions can solve problems that our government has not been able to solve for a long time.
Here are some facts I have mentioned in today's episode:
"When I say just say no I mean that unless you understand a specific proposition on your ballot, I urge you to vote no on it. Because if you fail to vote no then, in fact, those who vote on it have power increased. You are still subject to the rules but your power is being diminished by the fact that you're not addressing the issue."
"They need to get at least 50 percent of the voting public and those who vote are casting a vote on that ballot. But in fact, if you're casting a vote that you do not know about, if you do nothing you are in fact voting by doing nothing. Because when you do nothing those who vote have their power intensified and increased by 2, 3, 4 times depending on the small percentage that may vote for an initiative for a proposition."
"If somehow gambling is going to solve the drug addiction problem I have real concerns about exactly how they propose to solve this problem. If, in fact, all the efforts being made by governments cities, and all around the country have not been able to solve the problem. Are you going to solve the drug addiction problem by creating new gambling addicts? Because that's what happens when you expand the ability of gambling to get into the overall market."
"Vote no and put a stop to it if they want to explain what they're doing in some reasonable fashion then in fact you may consider it but under the current conditions with the telling stories and lies about what they're gonna do with all the money that's just poppycock."
