Politics: A reminder to our friends in California: Prop. 23 is evil

  • Hey everyone in California, when you see an ad like this one, remember that it’s not some company looking out for your financial interests. Instead, two giant oil companies, Valero and Tesoro, are pushing the proposition as a scare tactic. (You’ll see their names in the first second or two of the ad.) As you’ll see above, the advertising for this campaign is very manipulative, so we want to point out again: This is big oil looking out for their own interests. source
