      @lookingaround Thank you for the comments.

      My explanation for the law enforcement cost increase was that was the number the County Sheriff charges to Cupertino. I guess it's more costly to setup the in house police department at first, but the running cost should be lower than what the County Sheriff charges. But it's just a guess, I would love to see a research to compare the two options.

      For sales tax, in a perfect world, each city should receive the sales tax from their residents. For each $100 on taxable spending, the city should receive $1 (the other $8 goes to the state, county, etc). Cupertino should receive only $60K per month or $720K per year if average resident spending is $100 per month. $9M sales tax is equivalent to $1250 non grocery spending per resident (not per household) per month. I don't know about other families, but my family should be much lower than this number. I think even $9M sales tax for Cupertino is still higher if we go to a fairer system.

      My suggestions are not the most important things. Cupertino verified voters' voice is more important. I am glad my suggestion 1 and 2 made the top 2, which were also surpassed 55% of participated registered voters. I am quite glad with this results. The results were published here.

      AB 2098 is wrong in several places:

      Unprofessional conducts should be treated the same, regardless of whether they are related to COVID-19 vaccines. Evaluating the long term effects of vaccines normally takes many years. It is against scientific method to say anything not align with current scientific consensus is misinformation. The vaccination/booster is still an ongoing process. It is impossible to say the current scientific consensus is settled. All vaccines have side effects. If a physician or surgeon promotes COVID-19 vaccines, and the patient is harmed by the side effects, should the physician or surgeon be hold responsible, too? Physicians and surgeons are protected by the First Amendment, too.

      There are many research shows the side effects of the COVID-19 vaccines, like this one.
