Texas has had an invasion of Californuts for going on two decades. They move here with their wacko ideas and try to turn us into what they left behind. They jack up home prices which is causing every last one of our neighbors who have lived here for generations to either postpone retirement, sell or 14 on our street have put their homes up for vacation rentals just to pay the inflated property taxes.
They’ve turned Austin into the Berkeley of the Southwest.
However, I doubt that it is the truck drivers and cooks who are causing this.
People who have owned their homes for years should be delighted that home prices are rising.

Got news for you, pal. They didn’t start in California.
Cali didn’t invent liberalism. At one time we were quite
conservative. Remember a guy named Reagan?
When the libs got a toe hold they liberalized the
state welfare system. In response, governors loaded
the buses w/poor folk from many parts of the
country and aimed them westward. Looks like the
buses are turning around.
That’s why you need to do a proposition 13 type measure. It’s practically the 1 thing in the modern era California ever did right and it drives libtards NUTS. Your property tax here can never go up more than I think it was 1 or 1.5% per year and the basis only changes during a sale. You can revalue if the price drops a lot though.
Every cycle the ‘Rats try to gin up talk or some scheme to dismember it or hamstring it. It’s like a giant money piñata just out of reach of their stick, it’s the greatest legislation ever on the conniptions it puts them in alone.
Texas ping!
