This is about whether gutting prop thirteen for any non-primary residence and removing the ability to protect the tax basis in family transfers will be better or not for the majority.

The proposal will make it harder for people to buy, harder to move up, harder to save to buy because it will increase rents and push more to corporation run housing which will churn them.

The anti-13 crowd has a lot of wishful thinking on what they want, but no basic economic connection to what will happen in their proposal.
