....which is what a yes vote on this proposition will lead to.

Honestly, either one would work for me, since I'm retired and don't have kids anymore, etc. It's just the switching back and forth that I'm so tired of.

Note that in each of this election's bond measures, the cost of borrowing is almost equal to the amount of money borrowed -- a $4 billion bond issuance will ultimately cost nearly $8 billion total down the road.

I usually vote no on most bonds, because I’m sure I will be outnumbered in California, so there’s no need to help them.

It looks like posters on this forum are a lot more conservative than the average Californians. I too voted all “no” on bond measures but not holding up hope in this “give me for free” entitlement State.
