M*******c 发帖数: 4371 | 1 For most people, we just own one house or two. These houses are for our own
use.
We might like to upgrade it. With prop 13, housing price increases
unreasonably. Property tax might not be a little bit less. And you pay the
extra housing price and interest.
Secondly, you pay to wipe out what your neighbor owe the education system.
As I said, property tax is like education mortgage. People pay back what
they owe the system with premium and interest. With prop 13, a lot of people

s******n 发帖数: 793 | 3 在其它州,有两种地税
一是property tax,这个是按地收的,很少,地比较大的房子也才一千多的税
还有一个是school tax,这个很高,一般是property tax的五六倍,象我以前住的房子
,半亩地,最后交的是七千多的school tax,一千多的property tax
然后就有两类房子,一般是普通的,两税全要交
还有一类是55+社区,只交property tax,不交school tax,然后你不能有上学的小孩
所以在哪些州,普通的人等小孩毕业后,一般都是把房子卖掉,然后搬到55+的社区住
,每个区,不管好区差区,都会有这种55+的社区,这样等你老了后,可以把房子变成
钱,然后花很少的钱买一个新房,住在相同的区不用搬太远
他们卖掉的大房子,可以让更需要的人来住,不会造成两老人住几千尺的房子浪费
房子换手多,维护也会好很多,象加州这边哪些好区里年老失修的房子很难看到
再看看prop 13下的加州, 对老人来说,如果不想搬太远,就不可能卖房子
因为他卖了买不起,买得起也交不起新房子的税,只有住在现在的房子里
造成大量年老失修的房子和一两百万的新房混在一起

如何定义什么是【过分超越时代】?到底这个步子该迈的多大算不是过分呢?
所以我们应该把这个问题交给法官,交给受过正统教育的专业人员来判断。
所以再一次强调判prop 8违宪的意义在于,多数人不可以否决少数人的权利,这是歧视

美国就是一个中间偏右偏保守的社会,

可以站着说话不腰疼的要“为民申冤,主持公道”, 让世界充满爱.
一纸判决书下来,就用自己的“正义感”推翻了已有的法律,
而且是要延伸到整个地区, 整个州。

而邻居同样的房子 property tax 才你的零头 2000
别的地区,房价没那么高,差距也不会太大
不会那么地不公平
现在买房的,过了几年,房价涨了,
就可以以笑着看新邻居 pay high property tax |

看你怎么实施细节
1. 对退休,贫困的居民,可以给优惠,他们不至于立刻被迫卖房
2. 对房价估值过低的房子,可以提高每年估价升值的上限2%到例如10%
如此不会对居民造成太大变动及压力
3. 取消prop 13 对豪宅(例如,200万以上,尤其是 trust 拥有的房产)
和商业建筑的优惠
取消 Prop 13 的目的是修改除去不公平的部分
不是要 screw up some or the hard working middle class people

过超30的话,38为law。30 is a blank check to Sacramento: the money can be
used anywhere and it is retroactive. |
