(Ep237 repost from March 2022) In February 2021, Proposition 19 went into effect in California. Those who inherit property have one year to make it their permanent residence; otherwise, it will be reassessed at market value, which leads to a significant tax increase. My guest is Susan Shelley, vice president of communications for the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association. She explains the consequences of Proposition 19 and discusses her organization's initiative to repeal it.

💥WATCH FULL VIDEO NOW👇 https://youtu.be/i8kqo9WEOlU California had a net loss of 200 Thousand people last year. It’s not just the people, but the businesses and jobs are leaving as well. Most people, including the California Government, believe it is the housing costs that are driving Californians out of state. Despite the state pushing for 180 thousand new housing units per year, the construction is constant at around 100 thousand. Meanwhile the number of people per household has dropped. Meaning there is more housing available per capita. Is the housing cost the main factor for people leaving California or are there other hidden factors behind this exodus? To understand what’s happening, we talked to Dr. Jim Doti - President emeritus and the leading economist at Chapman University. He has been hosting annual economy forecasts and his last years forecast was the most accurate compared to 50 other nationwide forecasts. Today we discuss why he’s predicting California’s housing market will decline, and the cause behind businesses and people leaving the golden state.

That's why I'm now sitting here as a former Sheriff, not the current," said Alex Villaneuva.

(Ep552) Siyamak sits down with John Moorlach, former California State Senator and Orange County Supervisor. He talks about the latest report on how California's counties and cities are doing financially, why the state is late in providing the reports, and what the impact of those counties' performance is. Based on what Mr. Moorlach found, 55 out of 58 counties are running balance sheets that are currently "upside down"—meaning they have greater liabilities than they can pay. "We have close to 200 billion in unrestricted net deficit," Mr. Moorlach says. Furthermore, tardy financial reporting means "the legislature and the governor are signing budgets without even having solid financial data on how their state is running."
