I think the solution to homelessness and petty theft is to house people. Typically such housing is only deliverable by the state and taxes are a way to pay for it. I know that the status quo of not housing people is not going to solve homelessness. If California feels it is "tapped out" of taxing its citizens and yet is unable to build housing to house its population, maybe it needs to have a look at what it's spending its money on. (Of course the fact that Prop 13 exists means there's plenty of more tax room...)
