Based on polling SB-50 had the support of roughly 2/3 of Californians [0]. If we actually decided things democratically like we pretend to we wouldn’t need to worry so much about strong interests coming out against this. The people benefiting from the status quo have made hundreds of billions of combined dollars over the past decade alone at the expense of everyone else. They’ve built metaphorical walls to keep everyone else out of their cities except themselves. It’s long past time they were stopped from doing that. Who cares if they don’t like the transition? Everyone else doesn’t like the stranglehold they’ve been living under with the status quo.
