California is -- pure and simple -- an ungovernable mess. Prop 13 put California on that path. It will be extremely difficult to undo the harm that has occured along the way -- one proposition after another has tied the government of California to one stupid spending rule after another. If you were elected to state government there is not a damn thing you could do about much of anything to make government work in California -- the entire spending system and tax system needs to go out the window -- prop 13 is the place to start.

As for Arizona property prices -- they are up in all states and many countries during the larger bubble -- but Arizona looks like dirt cheap housing compared to California -- it is you who fail to explain that. Prop 13 was the first step down this path to self-destruction of the government of California. Getting rid of it should eb the first step back to sanity.
