Vote Day!

That time of the year is upon us my friends. The polling place is official closed and yes I did my duty. Big on the ballet tonight was prop 98 and 99. Both have to do with eminent domain, a mean and scary phrase that means hand over your evil dungeon to us so we can turn it into a park or freeway. With a definition like that how can you like it? I have had personal experience with these shenanigans back in my early days.
I owned this sweet little duplex by the side of freeway once that i had picked out specifically because it gave a tough " I live by the freeway/railroad tracks" vibe that made the ladies skedaddle when the deed was done. Killer huh. Anyway, I was forced out by the government because they wanted to widen the freeway. I had just got the place official condemned and everything. ah you should have seen it. Of course the nerds appraising the place couldn't see the inherit evil value of the place and gave me nothing for it. All that time wasted.
So I voted a big fat no on 98 and big fat yes on 99. I know what you are going to say, "Danzig, This only protects single-family homes only, and in California, single-family homes are not as widely targeted by government to benefit private developers. So, the measure would protect nothing.". Well, I live in a single family home. So there.
