That’s because income tax revenues from the wealthy soar in boom times but plummet in recessions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\">“This up-and-down cycle of our California budget, where it's feast or famine, is unhealthy for the state; it’s bad for the programs that rely on the budget,” says Genest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\">In addition to the usual support from labor and progressive groups, the measure is also backed by doctors and hospitals because it steers some of the money to Medi-Cal, California’s health care program for the poor.
