Letters: Left-wing billionaires are pushing Proposition 50
"If you are wondering how to vote on Proposition 50 gerrymandering, look no further than who is funding the yes campaign. Billionaires Tom Steyer and George Soros are pouring millions of dollars into it. These are far-left-wing elites. They are not interested in the people or what is good for the state of California. They are only interested in increasing their stranglehold over voters. They are the power-hungry force behind all the terrible policies that are destroying California."
"My first reaction to this news was, Who the hell cares what this guy thinks? Do only billionaires' voices matter? If Donald Trump rigs future elections, is peaceful protesting the only power we have? Not by a long shot. Even as Trump tries to sabotage the power of the vote, we have the power of the purse. It worked on Disney during the Jimmy Kimmel fiasco. It will work on any company that sells to consumers."
Proposition 50's yes campaign is receiving millions from billionaires Tom Steyer and George Soros, described as far-left-wing elites seeking greater influence over voters. Gov. Gavin Newsom is accused of orchestrating the measure and a costly special election to benefit low turnout. A no vote on Proposition 50 is urged. Opponents question tech billionaire Marc Benioff's call for National Guard deployment to San Francisco and argue that billionaire opinions should not dominate public debate. Collective consumer action and boycotts, tracked by www.goodsuniteus.com, are proposed as effective tools to pressure companies and remind billionaires that public spending drives corporate fortunes.
