There's nothing wrong with this. What's a more American way to clarify a disagreement than to put the topic on a ballot and let the voters decide?

Noted. However we could remove the question entirely by limiting advertising/funding for propositions. I realize that's a short answer to probably a long question, but I'd like that experiment.
