Know your props...

Although I am less than confident in exactly how our country operates( including the debates, nasty trash talk, and disregard for the real issues) voting is the only voice we have at the present time, so we should do all we can with what we have... Even if you don't agree or disagree with the props they will still effect our taxes and future; so be informed and vote... we work to hard to let the government be nonchalant with our money.

In case you haven't seen any of the write-ups for the propositions that will be voted on this coming November 4th, below are some links about the issues taken from The League of Women Voters website.

*What's cool about the league, is that it does not support or oppose candidates or political parties. It is completely nonpartisan and is widely accepted as an accurate source.
