As expected, I didn't see an actual apology for your complete misunderstanding over a fundamental issue of Prop 13. Just bleating about state and local governments somehow "crippled" even though there is no evidence of that. I bet you don't even live in San Jose, whereas I have for many years. I suggest you should actually understand the issues. You obviously don't, and instead just prattle off talking points that you googled without bothering to understand them. The Bay Area housing market has been hot for the last 20 years, the vast minority of houses will be owned for more than 20 years, which means that the amount of taxes that were collected has risen tremendously. But I see fat cat public servants getting ridiculous pensions and 13% raises, and then the politicians coming back to the people for more money by raising taxes. Police services include web sites to record crimes, since they won't actually come by and investigate them. This is the original reason why Prop 13 was introduced, because politicians went to the well of property tax one too many times, and the public got sick of it. Prop 13 will never go away, despite your best Internet efforts, but little actual physical efforts.
