I totally disagree, I think there is an economic term for prop 13 (siphoning?) which explains that "freezing" prices on items of limited supply for one group of buyers in effect causes the remaining inventory to skyrocket in price until a gross equilibrium is finally reached. It is the people who work for me who are in their 20s and trying to start families that are subsidizing the rich elderly who screwed their kids (again) with these discriminatory laws. If they want to cap property taxes so granny can't get evicted from her home, why allow investment property as a loophole? Because the whole thing was a scam, imo. Anyway I agree with you CA taxes are too high. But most of my neighbors pay nothing, I mean ZERO in property taxes now while continuing to use services. They inherited houses from their parents or are longtime homeowners who decided to rent the property and retire on the windfall. Its time to fix this inequity imo.
