    Opening & Welcome

    0:00

    Lena: Hey everyone, welcome back to another personalized podcast from BeFreed! I'm Lena, and I'm here with Eli to dive into something that's shaped California politics and economics for decades-the fascinating history of property taxes in the Golden State.

    0:15

    Eli: Absolutely thrilled to be here, Lena! You know, when people think about California's property tax story, they immediately jump to Proposition 13 in 1978, but there's so much more to unpack. We're looking at a tale of corruption, taxpayer revolt, and unintended consequences that still ripple through California today.

    0:35

    Lena: Right, and what's really compelling is how this isn't just a dry policy discussion. This is about real people-homeowners who couldn't afford to stay in their houses, corrupt assessors playing favorites, and a grassroots movement that literally changed how we think about taxation across America.
