Prop 5: Should Baby Boomers get a property tax break to move?

Voting for what’s the best policy, not my own benefits.

Must I quote The Man???

Self - interest is arguably the single largest motivator of economic activity. In his book covering the subject, “The Wealth of Nations,” Adam Smith described it this way: “It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest .”

Holy crap. Looks like Prop 5 the zombie will come back in 2020. :rage:

The Realtors recently filed notice with authorities that it would try again on the November 2020 ballot if Tuesday’s measure failed. Chris Carlisle, its legislative advocate, said it was “just to signal to our opponent we are not going away. If we lose this time, we will be back in 2020.”

Realtors love to sell people’s houses. When people live longer and longer, 55+ may become the majority after some years. Prop 5 may pass then. :rofl:
