It’s true. The prop system in CA is flawed and if it did succeed they would have just put it on a new prop the next year as well. I am always inherently skeptical when there is a prop with tons of funding going towards it. Research people!!!

I mean they’re not just pulling this out of their ass. Presumably consumers have been asking for regulation and a local govt is using their power to help.

Honestly I just hope that these assholes realize they did it to themselves when their property is nothing more than ash and they have to wait for their insurance payouts and miss out on rent payments.

Companies flex and try to bully, but they don’t have the power. The consumer is the king maker and once these companies get their crown they think they run the show, but that’s not the case. Fuck Uber I hope they keep losing.

If anything has this ability it should absolutely be banned outright. That’s Mother Nature telling us to figure something else out.

Loved in Atlanta most of this year for work and frequented Heretic multiple times. This is hitting closer and closer to home. I’m trying desperately to get my family and Allies in my life to see this threat and know that it’s serious and it’s growing.

🤷🏻‍♂️then idk. Maybe we just salt the earth so they can’t grow anything and these properties look barren and ugly.
