It's deplorable that we have to pay perpetual rent to government on property we own. If it were a very nominal amount for city services and roads, that would be one thing. But I'm paying the monthly rent of a small apartment!
My idea is a lifetime cap on property tax per owner per property, either as a percentage of a base value, or a fixed dollar cap.
ONLY GREAT THING about CA. is prop 13 but they are literally DYING
to GET RID of it, I have been quite stunned with the FULL RAT control
of both state houses they haven’t ripped prop 13 to shreds!!!!!
If I recall correctly, Patrick’s plan would lower property taxes by 60%, place a cap on appraisals and rate in turn for a 1% hike in the state sales tax.
The way it’s going, the taxing district will tax me out of my home in ten years or less.
