When has a law or proposition stopped runaway spending by the legislature before in California?

I'll vote no to prop 56 but I'm beginning towonder whether it's time to revisit prop 13.

I was listening to Money Talk this weekend on the radio and the host, Bob Brinker, a fairly conservative guy, scoffed when a caller from San Francisco stated that his property taxes on a $1 million dollar property was only $4,000 a year.

I think there should be caps on property taxes and they shouldn't be able to be raised on the whim of the legislature; but there needs to be some equity in the system dont' you think?

Here's my proposed No on 56 campaign ad:

Graphic: San Francisco Chronicle headline from July 22, 2003: Demos caught in budget gaffe: Open mike picks up faction's talk of profiting from a crisis.

Announcer: "Remember when the Democrats were secretly meeting to delay the budget?"

Tape of Jackie Goldberg (D-Los Angeles): "It seems to me if there's going to be a crisis, the crisis should be this year. What you do is you show people that you can't get to this without a 55 percent vote."

Announcer: "The Democrats planned to precipitate a crisis by hurting Californians."

Tape of Jackie Goldberg: "I think there's going to be a crisis, and the question is whether it should be this year or next year in terms of members of our house who want to get re-elected or in terms of members of our house who want to move to the Senate. Personally, I think the crisis is better off this year."

Announcer: "Don't let the Democrats get away with their plan to abuse their powers and hurt Californians. Vote NO on proposition 56."

Tape of Jackie Goldberg: "Oh, shit! Oh, shit!"

[End of ad]
