Only thing I know is it sure sounds like the long term homeowner in California made out best of all by a wide margin<g>

It's probably obvious but just splain' it to me. obviously she cannot...she says: Why should hard-working engineers living in a 2 bedroom home in Calif subsidize Midwesterners residing in a 10-room, 10,000 sq ft home? Let's get real and truly be fair here. probably one of the more lunatic statements i've seen on this thread in quite a while what is she saying? somehow the midwesterners (hmmmm....the none 'hardworking' type'?) are getting some type of free ride off of the HARDWORKING CA engineer who just so happens to choose to live in high tax, high priced location? RE taxes are LOCAL.... how in the world the poor, hapless, downtrodden 'CA engineer' is subsidizing a a midwesterner living in a fine, well priced home, taxed according to it's VALUE (er, NOT square footage?) is beyond...reason??? but hey.... amy is operating out of n. ca, where apparently stock options of the non-google variety can no longer compensate sufficiently those poor, hard working engineers sufficiently so that they can afford a million dollar rancher <vbg> hmmm....methinks her post sounds like a bad case of midwest/fine house (for the money) price envy
