Repealing prop 13 would provide the cash needed to build more housing and infrastructure.
Landowners in SF are going to hate any effort to deal with the housing crisis because they profit so handsomely from it. They'll fight any attempt to fix it tooth and nail - with lobbying, bribery, public relations, etc. That's what the Howard Jarvis Taxpayer's Foundation and prop 13 was all about in the first place.
Really, the only solution to that is to single out the leeches and demonize them until they stop. There's no way they will ever be on our side and there's no way they will stop fighting while they still have the power to protect their entitlements.
