What is proposition 13? I've heard about it a few times now but the Wikipedia article for it doesn't do justice to the charged tones any conversation pertaining to prop 13 carries. State politics are normally dense, but California is on another level. I recall your top Reddit comment in defense of the Golden State. Jerry Brown is literally coordinating international efforts to mitigate climate change since Trump won't, and they're like the sixth largest economy on their very own. But prop 13 just seems like a subsidy up there with the mortgage interest tax deduction.
