Anyone have a strong opinion on prop 3? I tend to vote against bonds but I do want to support children's hospitals. I'd love to hear good reasons why people are voting for or against this one.
The bill doesn't really have very strong provisions to make sure they're children's hospitals - beyond the couple that are named, basically any hospital that treats children can qualify, and while I think it's good to increase funding to hospitals, children's hospitals do pretty well for themselves.
There are no strong provisions on how the money from the bill would be spent, either - it can just as easily go to increase administrator salaries as it can to treat sick patients.
bonds suck. our healthcare system needs more than just hospitals for sick kids, it needs a complete overhaul. what about sick teenagers? sick old people? sick middle aged people? i voted no.
