Geez dude, you sure like to jump to these conclusions about folks who see prop 13's legacy a little differently than you. Not all of it's opponents are state employed fat-cats waiting to cash in a huge pension. Sounds like you may have a pretty insular social circle where you don't rub elbows with folks from different walks. THAT is the dark side to our beautiful California culture.
once again....
Protecting home owners sounds good to say, feels good to think about and sure gets people's attention. However, Prop 13 is not that simple. To represent it as such is a disservice (pun fully intended).
-Commercial properties are given the same protection as residential.
-2/3 cluster f@ck requirement for new taxes.
-California relies upon sales and income tax to generate revenues(can you see how that screws us right now?)
-California ranks 38th in property taxes.
But hey, consider this: we (California tax payers) are subsidizing your low property taxes. That's got to feel good.
