As a renter for 22 years still trying to get up a down payment which would make a mortgage tolerable I have to disagree with you Quigley.

Main reasons:

1. I recall my dad explaining why he voted for it in the 70s: Believe it or not the state had a tax surplus and were still gouging home owners. So people voted to limit the governments power to abuse that.
2. The high prices aren't due to prop-13 per se but due to a smorgasbord of other BS like NOT FUCKING BUILDING to ease the supply and demand problem. I mostly blame the boomer fucks and lefties for this.

There are of course plenty of other reasons like state, county and local practices requiring all manner of rip-off licensing etc., that drives the cost of new housing sky high. Illegal immigration, etc., etc.,...

President Reagan ...therefore he is exactly like God.

What do you mean like?

just_dregalicious says

I recall my dad explaining

That's the difference, isn't it? You're a local, priced out like so many locals I know, by people like Quigley who over-pay, setting the pricing (and the assessments) too high for everyone.

And then after he did that, he whined and bitched because folks like your dad have a lower assessment.

Welcome to Cool and Hip California.

I love the way these right wing retards attack anyone liberal that moves

Just goes to show that they really don’t have a shittin’ leg to stand on.

Yeah have to be a liberal to make a comment on topic

CA Prop 13 is hurting many young and productive people unless have a free house passed through trust from parents along with prop 13 tax basis. Half the bay area is rental place, owners extract money at market rate and keep the collected fair taxes with them under the name of prop 13.
Some of this funds to be used for anti housing that in turn bump up house demand, price and rents on existing housing.
In reality, Prop 13 taxes are like in the third word, your taxes depends on how well you are connected to politicians.
Also people with no connections pay full taxes and get blamed as if its their fault. Do you see a pattern here.

Reason 11 why California is the BEST state to live in:

11. Because B.A.C.A.H and I get to pay 1/10 the property tax of Quigley.

You guys must be some kind of rapacious BoomFucks or inheritors or something. Oh, wait, I pay less property tax, too! Never mind!

Point out abuses please.

Of what use is POWER if you cannot abuse it?

Why did Patrick indict you on 23 charges that Twitter let you slide on?

Don't make me, make you, make me crazy.

Jane, you ignorant slut.

Is this just another way Liberals are criminalizing disagreeing with their illogic?

So I need SPF 5000 to take a swim, and Miami and Manhattan is under water and the Federated States of Micronesia and Nauru have entirely disappeared?

1. This 1968 Immigration Bill won't fundamentally change the Demographics of the Country, so just vote with us to pass it.
1b. Isn't it great that the 1968 Immigration Bill fundamentally changed the Demographics? Only Racists are upset about it.

I prefer the wisdom of the Ages:

"Everything is gaslighting, and Nothing is gaslighting."

"if it's not flagrant butt kissing and soap opera lines, it's gaslighting the poor FooFoo!"

"It's not gaslighting. It's constructive criticism for losers!"

"With enough antidepressants, nobody has to say they are sorry for gaslighting!"

"Some people are just fucking inferior, and need to be reminded loud and often!"

Looks like the moderation of this site is abusing the power.

Could never happen....

Why did you need to create a shill account to complain about it?

An Ethiopian is unhappy somewhere in Ethiopia! IMPEACH TRUMP!

I would blame starving Ethiopians before I would blame a US president.

jazz_music says

Starving Ethiopians are blamed for that responsible for that because they have no radio/cable/web propaganda network to fight back.

I hope Ethiopians take Boeing to cleaners since ultimately Boeing is responsible for releasing something that is not safe to fly (safety enhancement should have been released before planes were allowed to fly). PROFITS! are more important than safety, which just distracts from shareholder value.

Unfortunately, I doubt that Ethiopians will get much out of Boeing since they do not have enough money to lawyer up.

Leftists: "Trump is responsible for crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia!"

Meanwhile, the largest operators of the 737 MAX are US Carriers, with no crashes or incidents of course.

TDS has become an epidemic.

for people who must say something but have really nothing to say, BOOM!

Actually, his point "Meanwhile, the largest operators of the 737 MAX are US Carriers, with no crashes or incidents of course" is spot on.

It certainly has, here's another one:

... for people who must say something but have really nothing to say, BOOM!

TDS here has become a epidemic, and when you point that out, these same people just start whining (Kaki)...

I knew a TDS sufferer would come on here and blame Trump for the plane crashes, since Trump hand built those planes himself.

Honestly, I have my doubts that people in shithole countries can fly an airplane even if it has good autopilot.

Usually airplanes there are flown by foreigners.

White privilege and reparations need to be addressed here.

Gaslighting, noun: To challenge the logical faculties of a liberal, typically a person of limited faculties. Derivation: intended as a more appealing sounding name for the outing of stupid people, the term is a defensive euphemism, like affirmative action, which is a defensive euphemism for racism.

Shithole country.

Ahh the cry of the white male victim

Delicious tears mmmmm

Tripped on a sidewalk today, blame Trump.

Herdingcats says

Simple - did you notice any difference between the government being open and the government being shutdown?

You didn't?

Gee, it's almost like we could get rid of most of it...

Longest in history, and all that happened a few people in the TSA had to feel up blow up dolls instead of people for a 4 weeks. Boo hoo.

"US pilots who fly the Boeing 737 Max have registered complaints about the way the jet has performed in flight, according to a federal database accessed by CNN."

"In one of the complaints, a captain reported an autopilot anomaly which led to a brief nose-down situation -- where the front of the aircraft pointed down, according to the federal database. In another complaint, a first officer reported that the aircraft pitched nose down after the autopilot was engaged during departure."
