Hey, this is Nereida Moreno.

Welcome back to Imperfect Paradise.

I'm here with Kristen Wong of CalMatters and assistant professor Jennifer Gaudette of UC Riverside School of Public Policy.

And we're talking about Prop 40, also known as the billionaire's tax.

...

Public Policy School at the University-

Yep

... of Calgary, uh, she was on this show last week saying that that's the thing she hears more than anything else, is that people who really are nos- ... are going to vote yes because they think they need to give their government a better-

So we had our county clerk, which is obviously really important when you're doing something with a potential ballot initiative.

We had a law professor and a professor from UK's School of Public Policy.

We had the representative from the Chamber of Commerce, the chambers who conducted the 1998 Charter Review.

So just people we thought were smart and knew about Civic Lex and knew about Lexington and could help us think through how to even do this here.

And his commentary runs regularly in the Financial Times, Project Syndicate, and the National Review.

He's a professor of practice at, uh, Georgetown's, uh, School of Public Policy and a former economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

Uh, Michael, welcome.

Pleased to have you with us.
