I try not to get upset about Prop 13. In 10 years, I think, I will be lauding it. My parents own a few homes in SD County, including La Jolla, and when they die we will inherit their property tax status, though only on their main residence…which is, unfortunately, not one of the LJ homes. It’s kind of become a joke among us sibs…”Dad, please move into one of the La Jolla rentals!”

Econ–

Looks like they are reassessing everyone…or so it seems because of your case. As I posted yesterday, or the day before, we filed before May 30th for a reassessment — complete with comps — and we got a letter from Greg Smith on the 3rd downgrading our home’s value $100K. Yay! As you know, on that form, they ask you how much you think your house is worth. We named a figure, and that’s exactly what they reassessed us for. I only wish we’d put in an even lower number!

On the other hand, Fat Lazy Union says his assessment this year is even higher than last year. I think he lives in one of the strongholds, though. Carmel Valley I think.

[quote=Raybyrnes]Citzenship and Flag pins are pretty insignificant issues. Both candidates are well passed the sniff test. How about arguing something more thought provoking like economic philosophy on issues like job creation, Education, Healthcare, social security.

For all posters have you ever voted or supported someone other than your party affiliate? If you have not can you look back and say that you made a poor decision in hindsight. How can anyone be open minded if they go in with blinders on. [/quote]
I’m a Dem but I voted for Ford (first time I could vote) over Carter, because Carter’s fundamentalist Christianity scared me. I will vote in November, but I will not vote for either of the presidential candidates, because I don’t like either one. I’m gonna be one of those “don’t blame me” people whatever happens, just like in the last few years I have said “Don’t blame me–I didn’t vote for Bush either time.” In those elections, I voted for the Dem…but this time, as I said, I’m not voting for either.
