everytime i read a post fretting about the raises in prop tax in some other state I bask in the warmth of prop 13. it is the best, fairest tax law ever written.

of course it is

while enjoying the obscene rise in property values, your relative share of the cost of supporting the infrastructure and services that allowed the appreciation declined proportionately.

now the wheels are coming off the california economy as the state resorts to extreme measures to continue to function.

so watch that equity melt like bacon fat as the value of california real estate absorbs the reality of values returning to reflect the actual value of the underfunded, diluted "california experience"

Your taxes being 1/10th that of your neighbors for a very similar asset is fair?
