California Ballot Initiatives
[ send me this paper ]
A 16 page paper examining the evolution of the ballot initiative from a method by which grass root opinion could be translated into law to a tool of wealthy special interest groups with little concern for any outcome aside from supporting their own
agendas. Budget by initiative is likely to continue since the Supreme Court refused in 1999 to
limit the number of ballot initiatives that can be pursued in any one election. When special interest
groups are able to remove more than 100 percent of state funds from the control of the state
legislature, the now-crumbling system will be fully disabled and both reason and practicality will
dictate redesign. As there is only a small percentage of total funds available to legislators and outside the dictates of completed initiatives, the crisis point likely is not far in the future.

secondary public schools. Bibliography lists 8
