You forgot to account for two significant factors: that 40% of Californians pay no state income tax, and that California dramatically skews toward higher brackets paying for the state's expenditures - the top 1% already pay an absurdly massive 48% of state income tax.

Per person numbers like the ones you included are basically meaningless, given they bear almost no reflection of the actual fiscal implementation and unique issues it would create.

Alexander Tyler nailed the broader issue of 'democracy' long ago:

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves money from the public treasure. From that moment on the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most money from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy followed by a dictatorship."
