Proposition 55 Argumentative Analysis

Voting Yes is the first step to getting better funding for public education, it is estimated that this will improve opportunities for educational success for one million students in Arizona schools. Vote no advocates may have expressed their concerns about the next funding and the trust fund and in the process spooked some voters but the Vote Yes advocates are already addressing their concerns.The Joint Legislative Budget Committee reports that the trust is expected to grow by $1.2 billion over the next 10 years and Children's Action Alliance are already collaborating with others to find the next step for funding public schools. Prop. 123 is what Arizona’s public education desperately needs, we need to stand together and make the change we want to see. Make sure to vote before May 17th, the future of educational funding is depending on your vote. ”Unity is strength.. When there is teamwork and collaboration, wonderful things can be achieved” (Mattie J.T.

I would have rather paid a measly 200.00 to the government than to have Proposition 13. This is a slap in the face as a teacher, they are truly hurting the wrong things. Most people knew that it would do this and it did. I was resentful and how many ways can we express ourselves? I thought this was like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. What was even worse was that it undercut and there had to be reductions to meet constraints and we had to go backwards. Also the two-thirds vote should have been majority. Another impact was that other states followed California and the taxpayers wanted to send a message, I believe Oregon passed one. There is only one way to get around this proposition and that is mellow rues."

The main reason is to avoid the possibility of the quality of learning going down because of budget cuts. It also wants to help keep California’s budget balanced in regards to giving money to public schools. Lastly, it guarantees that the money generated is going to schools and health care. Section four brings up Section 36 of Article XIII of the California Constitution and how it supports Proposition 55, along with other sections in the constitution that support it. Section five talks about the conflicting measures with Proposition 55.

Aside from school funding and protecting Children’s Healthcare, Proposition 55 will also maintain low taxes for families whose income is low. Proposition 55 will only keep higher taxes on the rich because as many say, they are able to afford it. According to Protecting California, these high taxes will only “apply to singles that make $250,00 and couples who make $500,000 or more a year.” (Protecting California) This shows that it really does only tax higher to those who really are able to afford it. Voter’s Guide is also stating how it will, “Only affect the wealthiest Californians who can most afford it, ensuring they continue to pay their share of taxes.” (Voters Guide) Ergo meaning that, the high taxes being taxed will indeed be paid because

It will continue increasing taxes on the wealthiest Californians and fund schools and health care. The education advocates gathered together to make sure proposition 55 would be pass, so that schools don't lose the funding they get. The organizations supporting proposition 55 in, John Fensterwald Prop. 55: Initiative to extend income tax increases to benefit schools are California Teachers Association, California Association of Hospitals and Health Systems and California State Council of State Employees. California propositions: A voter guide, Laurel Rosenhall article mentions the organizations that oppose proposition 55 which are Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, Gov. Jerry Brown and California Taxpayers Action Network. Supporters say that proposition 55 will prevent $4 billion in cuts to California's public schools, help children access health care by continuing taxing only the wealthiest Californians which will be followed by strict accountability requirements. While in TAX EXTENSION TO FUND EDUCATION AND HEALTHCARE. INITIATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT, the opposing side argues that voters supported higher taxes in 2012 because Governor Brown said they would be temporary. State budget estimates show higher taxes are not needed to balance the budget, but the special interests want to extend them to grow government bigger. Proposition 55 should be passed because it will only affect the wealthiest

Okay, education time for all you prop 55 supporters. A temporary tax is that TEMPorary. Prop 30 that passed in 2012 was to take care of the lost revenue only during the period of recession. If Mr. Brown and the unions support prop 55 we should read between the lines. Look at SB1530 as an example of why we should fear what the unions support. In SB1530 the unions protected teachers involved in serious or egregious unprofessional conduct from dismissal. Currently, the appeals processes and dismissal of permanent employees is wasteful. The unions do not put the students ' safety as the priority.

Does the tax cut mean we won't have to pay as much in taxes because Californians seem to be unsettled by the new cuts? The only people who are excited about the tax cut are the wealthy people.

Both letter to the editor and editorial staff offer position that are supported by both facts and opinions. The letter explores to urges the new reusable bag ordinance while the editorial staff argues that they are serious about making Proposition 328 mandatory in every store. While both side make an acceptable case, it is clear that the letter provides a better argument.

Is proposition 53 a solution in search of a problem or is it a long term solution. Just like every other proposition proposed, this proposition can either benefit the community or it can impact it negatively. November 8th is an important day because of the fact that voters will go out and cast their vote. On this day a new president will be elected. Voters must also vote yes or no on certain propositions. Proposition 53 is strictly for California, any voter living in California has the opportunity to vote in support or in opposition for the proposition. Before going out and voting voters should be fully informed about everything in the ballot. So what is proposition 53? It is voters approval requirement for revenue bonds above $2 billion.

Proposition 55 will also support education and health care by giving them funds. We should always put the children's education and safety as our priority. California brought in prop 30 to help out with the funding of schools, shrink class sizes and healthcare in Smith director of communications at the California Labor Federation "Labor's Edge: Views from the California Labor Movement" article . If the proposition doesn’t pass there would be weeks cut off from schools, it would make learning difficult for the children due to the amount of students in the classrooms and families with low incomes won’t be able to afford healthcare. These two issues are the main ones from proposition 55 but there are more problems the proposition will like to

Argument for Proposition A: Since God is defined by Anselm as “a being than which nothing greater can be conceived”, and existence is considered a great making property, it follows that the greatest being (i.e. God) would possess the attribute of existence inherently. Argument for Proposition B: Due to God being the greatest being conceivable, the existence of a second being of equal power would logically contradict Anselm’s definition. If a second being existed of equal or greater power God would no longer be the greatest, instead he would just be great. Therefore, there is only one God. Argument for Proposition C: Things in the material world come in and out of being (e.g. people, plants, etc.).

The weakness of Argument #2 based around the premises of addiction and that overtime can have an altering effective on your bodily functions, which can eventually pose just as much danger as that of a drunk driver behind the wheel of a vehicle. The strength of Argument #2 is even though this is an addictive drug and it can decrease your awareness. However, with proper medical treatment, working closely with communities, and the judicial system you can rid yourself free from this addiction and live a life of freedom without financial issues or physical

Ackerman’s definition of autonomous behavior states that autonomous behavior must be “formulated through deliberation or reflection” (14). I disagree with his definition because impulsive actions arising from independent, self-governing will are still autonomous, despite their lack of deliberation. The definition matters because he forms his argument that doctors should intervene based on the notion that illness compromises autonomy. While I agree that patients may become more emotional and less rational when making fatal decisions about their health, I still view these decisions as autonomous. The text gives an example of a woman with cancer who becomes depressed and decides to opt out of treatment, despite her previous commitment to the

I had the pleasure of interviewing District Attorney of San Bernardino Marbi Burnette. In the personal interview we talked about whether we see any benefits from Prop 47 and Prop 57 and if there are any negative side effects. What benefits, if any, have you seen from proposition 47? “Most of the benefits have been to the offender. Instead of being charged with felonies, they get a misdemeanor. For the offender, a misdemeanor is less damaging than a felony conviction, increasing the person's chances of acquiring gainful employment, enter college and qualify for financial aid, get approval for housing, etc.” Do you expect to see any benefits from proposition 57? “While it's too early to tell how many offenders will actually benefit from

Proposition 30 is going to bring billions of dollars to the school system, It is going to insure budget cuts will not take any immediate effects, and help to revitalize the already crumbling school system. Proposition 30 increases the state sales and use tax rate .25 percent for four years (from January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2016); and increases personal income taxes for single taxpayers with a taxable income exceeding $250,000 – adding three new tax brackets of 10.3 percent, 11.3 percent, and 12.3 percent – for seven years (2012 through 2018). The initiative was sponsored by Governor Jerry Brown and the California Federation of Teachers. (CalTax “Prop 30”, 1)
