If this passes I will be the first to move to California. I am happy to pay high taxes if it means it will better my lives and the lives of others.

You don't need to move to contribute to charity that helps others.

Charity helps specific people. Taxes help everyone. I always vote to increase my property taxes. Libraries, Schools, Emergency Services all get better with that increased revenue.

There are many charities that help as wide a range of people as possible.

I don't think there are any taxes anywhere that help "everyone". I don't even think there are any taxes anywhere that help "everyone" in a specific jurisdiction.

If you are looking to offload some money I'll take it! It would better my life.

After looking at your comment history I don't think money would better your life. Travel would.
