So, what's your take then on how Prop 13 affected 2 very different areas discussed in your own blog post: Marin on one hand and Oakland on the other? I'm willing to grant you a nuanced understanding, but again, you are celebrating one of the very things that worsened the situation that you are trying to solve. The state guarantees minimum funding, but districts make the rest up from property taxes, and fundraising. You can't tell me that Marin and Oakland are anywhere near equivalent in either of those cases. Side question: I'm curious to where you were educated and how that system was funded as opposed to how California does it?

The fact that you are praising Prop 13, which is a large factor in the unequal funding of schools and has exacerbated the exact problems that you refer to in your blog post, is supremely​ troubling. I'd welcome a more in depth explanation on your thoughts on Prop 13.
