I usually get into an argument with folks when I espouse this, but I feel that Prop 13 paved the way for the ridiculous housing prices in the California market.

I can't believe that prop taxes would've forced millions out of their homes...the revolt should've been against housing inflation.

I'd much rather pay 3-5% prop taxes on a "nice, normally priced" $200k home, than my current 1.25% on my $500k overly-inflated-fixer-upper...it'd save me about $1k a month!

By the way, what are prop taxes % in Boston? How about NY state? Anyone?
