I remember hearing or reading about Perry’s job creation and how he can’t really take all the credit, but I don’t remember where now. So I just did a quick check and came across Texas job growth.

It goes into and covers quite a bit over the past 20 years, including the type of low paying jobs:
Dick Lavine, a senior fiscal analyst with the Center for Public Policy Priorities, says the state is tied with Mississippi for the highest percentage of the workforce in minimum wage jobs

And the money that’s basically used to bribe corporations to set up shop in Texas:
Texas Enterprise Fund. This taxpayer fund was created at Perry’s behest to give money directly to corporations as an inducement to either relocate to Texas or, if they’re already in the state, to expand. Perry says that by giving away nearly a half-billion dollars, the fund will ultimately create nearly 60,000 jobs.

Worth a read. Ends w/this:
What is undeniable is that relative to the rest of the country, Texas is adding the most jobs by far. Unfortunately, it has not been enough. Texas’ unemployment rate is at 8.2 percent, higher than the unemployment rate in the highly taxed, highly regulated state of New York. It is also higher than the 7.6 percent unemployment rate of Massachusetts, with its near universal health care, the state once governed by GOP rival Mitt Romney

I just cannot consider voting for Perry.

I think they got a pretty good deal. 540 Gage Ln.
Originally the wish LP was $3,295,000.
MLS#: 100072738
Beds/Baths: 3 / 4
Est Square Feet: 3,509 sf
PPSF: $527
Lot Size: 49,223 sf

It just closed for $1,850,000. That’s 2002 pricing, but when you factor in the low interest rates, I think for La Playa, they did well.

I remember seeing a pie chart somewhere about how many people are still benefitting from low Prop 13 taxes, but I can’t find it. It was low. I did come across this.

Since the measure passed, the assessed value of homeowner property has grown at an average of 8.1% per year, and assessed value of non‐homeowner property subject to Proposition 13 has grown an average of 8.4% per year, according to data from the California State Board of Equalization, specifically Page 11 through 14 or so.

Edit: On average, 20% of all Californians move every month and the proposition was passed over 30 years ago. 8% of San Diego County homeowners who are at that original 1978 rate.
