    Yep.

    We used to have the problem of senior citizens having their property taxes jacked up every year to the point that the taxes are almost as high as the original purchase price. Bunch of seniors were ending up losing their houses.

    Prop 13 was designed to fix that; and it did, but it also caused a bunch of ‘unintended consequences’.
