Help Stop Special Interest Groups and Unions From Buying Politicians; Vote Yes On Proposition 32

globaleconomicanalysis.blogspot.com / by Mike Shedlock / September 21, 2012

In general, if union leaders and organizers are raising money for some political purpose, I am against the proposal (and vice versa).

In the case at hand, public unions are raising money to defeat proposition 32, so it is nearly automatic that I would be for it. And I am.

But what is California proposition 32?

Proposition 32

Vote Yes on Proposition 32 if you want to …

Prohibit corporations and unions from giving to candidates
Prohibit the deduction of political money from worker paychecks, making all political contributions truly voluntary
Prohibit contractors from giving to politicians who approve their contracts

Please consider the following You-Tube video on prop 32.

“In my original ideas about the film, the ministry didn’t know whether there were terrorists out there or not because over the years they had so many counter agents and counter-counter agents out there and agent provocateurs who maybe set explosions to lure people in. The people lost track of whether there really were terrorists or not, but the important thing is the belief in terrorists had to be maintained to allow the ministry to continue to survive. Originally the film was called The Ministry. It was really about the survival of an organism like a great bureaucracy that will do anything to keep itself going.." - Terry Gilliam on Brazil
