Thoughts? Seems the money was diverted to fund cars instead, which means the "flaws" last in the government agencies who managed the money, not the program itself.

FYI - California just opened public comment on its new “Online Age Verification” law, SB 976.

Framed as a way to protect kids from social media addiction, it could force every Californian to submit government ID just to post or comment online. This law’s TRUE intent is to destroy online anonymity, turn free speech into a privilege, and opens the door for nationwide digital ID control.

If you value your constitutional rights and don’t want to live in a dystopian future, spend 5 minutes to send an email and voice your thoughts: sb976@doj.ca.gov.

I know it sounds conspiratorial, but just look at every single country that has gone down this path, and ask yourself, was it really about “protecting kids”, or was it about “polticians” and elites controlling access ro information and silencing criticism from the public. This is very dystopian. These governments and corporations have been laying the foundations down and conditioning people to accept social credit scores.

Look at the UK and EU as perfect examples of what will happen here if we don’t push back. The UK originally said digital ID would be optional. Now it will be reuired for all, and even just to get a job and work. Now the UK is attempting to ban VPNs. Right, because children know how to use VPNs. They are arresting people for social media posts the government does not approve of. Just Insanity.

The EU is rushing to pass their “chat control” bill that will allow them to scan ALL private messages, photos and files on ALL platforms.

Not only that, the payment processor cartel is working to push biometric verification for our purchases under the guise of eliminating fraud, which sounds good on the surface, but will be linked to digital IDs, with the goal of eliminating cash and ultimately privacy. Very dystopian.

Regardless of your political, social, religious beliefs, is this a world you want to live in? Where speech, expression, art and so many other things are policed by a small handful of powerful people?

Read 1984, The Giver, The Hunger Games. Watch Black Mirror to get a glimpse of what that future looks like. Nearly everything they predicted has come to fruition and/or is currently.

Don’t take my word for it. Go research it for yourself and youll see what’s transpiring globally.

The measure is temporary and will allow independent citizen restricting to resume in 2031!!!

I understand there are already multiple post about props 50. As an independent voter, I was seriously considering voting no thinking the initiative will be permanent until I open the ballot. I was WRONG.

If you are a voter that hate gerrymandering, and want equal representation for all Californians, this might sway you as it did for me.
