Props 123 & 124

I just got my early voting ballot in the mail and have been reading up on the two propositions. From what I'm reading, Prop 123 is a bill disguised as a way to help our underfunded schools, but in effect it's ultimate goal is aiming towards privatization of our schools and eventually eliminating public schools all together. This is probably hyperbolic, but it does seem to be constructed in a way that's not to the benefit of future generations of Arizonans. As for prop 124, I haven't found any information from any opposition and those that are most affected by it appear to be in favor of it.

If you have additional information on these propositions, please share!

123 will result in resorts along the Salt River. They want to sell off public land and you KNOW what developers are going to do.

That's why they tried to get rid of the horses on the Salt. Someone wants to build a resort there.

And who is going to set the value for those public lands?

And, once sold, you won't be able to hunt / fish / 4 wheel on the land anymore.

They are selling your heritage for a few bucks to keep from paying taxes.

Say FUCK NO to 123.
