Before each election, I write up an analysis of the California ballot measures and send it to my friends. Many thoughtful people reading the ballot pamphlet trying to find the "angles" of those that support or oppose each measure, and it's not always so easy to determine.

This is the result of my own analysis, which comes from a strongly libertarian perspective, and it's much more about expressing a rationale than it is about getting anybody to vote a certain way.

In some cases I am either undecided or only weakly decided: I always invite thoughtful arguments you think I might have missed.
