June 6, 1978 was a beautiful day in the North County area of SD county. I was standing in one of the official polling locations, my cousin's garage in RB, and watched while folks voted away the future. I still believe that there were other options that could have moderated inequities in taxes, as was done here in Texas, (homestead and seniors exemptions, etc.) Like many things we try, unintended consequences from that vote reverberate to this day.JALLEN wrote:You guys are making me nervous. I am moving for other reasons but was hoping to get away from this socialist hellhole mentality of the whacko Democrats in the Legislature here who have a supermajority this time.
I surely do not want to get back home just in time to see them do to Texas what they have done to California which, when I arrived, had a Governor named Reagan, one of the more prominent state supreme courts in the country, a growing thriving economy and one of the best educational systems in the country.
