It is not Republican - it is a desperate measure due to the extreme budget crisis in CA. Perhaps if Gray Davis had not increased state spending by 35% during his first term (with most of the money going to pay off unions), we wouldn't be faced with this.
Instead, Davis and the state legislature treated the capital gains windfall in the late 90s as though it were an annuity - and spent it all.
