Opposition to Prop. 167
I am surprised you let the proponents of Prop. 167 get away with talking in such vague simplicities as “tax the rich.” Readers deserve to know that the tax increases in the initiative will hit everybody.
The promoters also talk about a long list of government programs that would benefit from this tax tantrum. Again, they are not telling the whole truth. There are no guarantees in Prop. 167 that any of the money would be spent on anything the promoters say it would. It is a blank check for the politicians in Sacramento.
Vote no on Prop. 167.
