Historically property taxes funded schools in CA and many other states. Yes, some recent other prop-related taxes like Prop-30 have been funding general funds in the pretext of supporting education (exclusive education funding was only for the first two years.. suckers!). Either way, Propery tax linked to education is something US voters are likely to support. Richer neighborhoods get slightly richer schools even though majority of the money is evenly spread.
