[quote=spdrun]You speak as if high prices (and normal people being priced out of close-in markets) are a good thing, when in reality, they’re just welfare for boomers.[/quote]
It’s not the prices, spdrun. It’s Props 13, 58 and 193 which are essentially “welfare” for boomers and beyond.
Sadly, I don’t have any of those benefits. I’m paying market-rate taxes on my home, as opposed to most of my neighbors. It really galls me.
The CA Legislature still won’t touch this body of law … even at this late date, what with the all the state budget shortfalls combined with CA’s unfunded mandates. Our state representatives are deathly afraid of losing the over-55 vote (the group with the highest percentage of voters within their overall numbers).
