(from NoProp98.org)

“The nonpartisan Legislative Analyst has determined that Prop. 98’s restrictions on regulation of a property’s sale price could abolish laws (now existing in about a third of the state’s cities and counties) that require the inclusion of lower-cost housing in new developments.”

(from SF Gate)

Did I say ‘here and there?’ I meant ‘here, there and everywhere.’ I could continue, but I think I’ve made my point. Swami sez: Prop 99 with the points!

Where’s my bookie?
