[quote=FlyerInHi]BG, I’m not taking issue with what you wrote.
Strictly for financial management, it’s irrelevant what the intent of prop 13 was. It is the law now. Deal with it.
Maybe prop 13 is unfair and poorly written. That’s could be reason to change the law. I can accept that argument.[/quote]
My point was that Props 13, 58 and 193 are all SUBSIDIES to a vast number of Californians who are NOT senior citizens on fixed incomes or necessarily unable to pay market rate taxes. Since these benefits are not “need-based,” they amount to SUBSIDIES or have the effect of being SUBSIDIES. These SUBSIDIES, for which CA governments receive nothing in return amounts to unjust enrichment for some taxpayers at the expense of the rest of the taxpayers … in CA coastal counties, often grossly so.
