Junk Mail

A recent flyer I got in my mailbox:
"Prop 98 is a landlord scheme to eliminate rent control and unfairly evict you"

They're trying to get rid of rent control? At long last, Milton Friedman lives on.
It gets better, because Prop 98 is also trying to eliminate the use of eminent domain to give land to private parties.

I can't wait to vote for this, it's attacking both rent control and Kelo v. New London.
A tip of the hat to the sponsors of this proposal: Doug Mosebar, Jon Coupal, and Jim Nielsen.

Oh, and a wag of the finger to the following groups who sent that flyer to me:
The AARP, Natural Resources Defense Council, Consumer Federation of California, California Teachers Association, Housing California, and the California League of Conservation Voters.
