Our Mess in Sacramento

[ellisonz]

The CA political process has been haywire for at least the last decade or so in the eyes of many observers. What changes to our electoral and legislative processes would you make?

1. As a fellow Sacramento resident....

Speaking to your question on electoral and legislative changes. We must change legislative rules to a simple majority. Period. I really do not see the benefit in having the two top vote receivers heading to the ballot box. If anything, I think it's going to create problems. I just don't see the benefit.

But speaking generally, what I really want. What I really, really want more than anything is for California to take the title of best run State for years to come. I am so fucking sick of the branding the republican party has given us. I really want them to eat my liberal shit pie.

2. I'd vote out the incumbent class

Term limits don't work because of the Heir Apparent system.

3. Roll back two features of Prop 13

the two-thirds supermajority to raise taxes, and its applicability to commercial property. Revenue problem solved.
