God Democrats in California are morons - The Prop 30 scam.

[IGBT]

All the passage of Prop 30 proves is
that millions of Californians will vote to raise taxes on a few
thousand other Californians. The old saying “don’t tax you,
don’t tax me, tax the man behind the tree,” was in full play here.
Brown has told the media that Californians are ready “to tax
themselves.” No they’re not. They’re ready to tax anyone and
anything other than themselves.

While Prop 13 has proven remarkably successful in keeping
people in their homes, it never really delivered on the promise of
restraining the size and scope of government in California. Had
government growth been limited to increases in population and
inflation as envisioned by the Gann Spending Limit in 1979, California
would have a surplus and a massive rainy day fund. But the Gann limit
was gutted by a coalition of government and corporate interests. We
are now paying the price for California’s two decades of profligate
spending.

We are paying for the Bush housing collapse and the destruction of the economy by the rape of America by Wall Street.

I know the majority of Californians here voted it down, but you can't fix stupid. And there are a LOT of stupid people here in Cali. THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT POINT OF PROP 30 was that it was written in the sky that it would NEVER address the true educational fiscal shortfall. It was strictly to circumvent schools and go right into pension obligations.

When you are staring down the barrel of unfunded pension obligations to the tune of $200 Billion dollars, there is no amount of tax that is going to rescue that scenario. Here's a great, short article.........

Why would conservatices support a law designed to keep people in their homes?

Let the marketplace decide that. If you cant afford the taxes on your home because it went up in value, then too bad, sell it! Everyone wins
