Keep in mind that most potential voters don't vote anyway. Hell, most of them don't even know about the proposals until after their tax increases.
In a way it's a wrapped system. Let's say 80% of the population doesn't want tax increases, but only 20% of the population votes - and out of this 20% more than 10% want the tax increase - you get a tax increase passed "by popular vote" when only 10% of the population actually agrees to it. |
