Ted, > You know exactly what I am saying. I hope this answers your question.

I do, and it doesn't.

Lots of expenses have been postponed, but that's due to government mismanagement like you said, not due to Prop. 13. Every single time the state gets a surge in revenues, it mishandles the money and grows unnecessary bureaucracy. It happened while Ah-nuld was in power, it happened while Davis was in power, and it probably happened before that as well.

I can understand if Prop. 13 caused those revenues to be unpredictable or erratic, but hey, aren't our government leaders supposed to know how to deal with that? Kind of chickens--t to blame the average taxpayer for wanting a steadier tax burden.
