Silicon Valley's education and alternative fuel initiatives -- What do you think?
| Doerr |
Doerr is supporting Proposition 88, for a real estate parcel tax to benefit education. Khosla is supporting Proposition 87, a royalty on oil pumped from California, as summarized in this piece by the Mercury News.
Here is a great review by Sean Garrett, of 463 Communications in San Francisco, of the decidedly mixed history of Silicon Valley's legislative efforts. His conclusion: When Silicon Valley sticks together, it gets its way more often than not.
So what do you guys think? Are you in for real estate tax for education?

There was a good discussion (well as good as slashdotters allow past the snarky comments) on Mr. Khosla's ethanol adventure. See http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/07/31/1742201 and http://www.theoildrum.com/story/2006/7/24/202222/351
