>>I would like the cap on the permissible annual increase to be lifted to 5% from 2%<<

why, so CA can give more money to the unions?

the teachers' avg salary went from $56k to $69k in 4 years. do you want them making $100k with a 50% drop out rate in LA unified?

oh, and get ready to pay pensions in that amount for 30 years after they retire.

the problem *IS NOT* the amount of taxes.

spending increased 79% (even after the financial crisis), while population + inflation increased 49% over the same time period.

why give these greed bags even more money to waste?

Housing turnover rates in California are only about 8 months longer than the national average. I'm sure there are particular houses that haven't come on the market because of the Prop. 13, but to think housing would tank with its repeal is pure fantasy. Why do you want to live in a fantasy world?
