Marc Cooper on results of the Tuesday CA proposition votes.

I don't know if I agree with everything Marc Cooper says in his post-mortem about Tuesday's pass-the-budget-problem-solving-to-the-voters proposition 1A-1E defeats (excepting the Yes vote on denying legislature payraises in bad economic times), but he makes a valid point that the state's voters need to deep-six their selfishness and roll back Howard Jarvis' property-tax relief Proposition 13 from the late 1970s: http://marccooper.com/arnold-flubbin-california-shruggin/

To roll back some or all of Prop 13 is vital considering the effects of the recession on schools and other public services.
