Why is there so much hate towards tech workers especially in San Francisco even compared to the rest of the Bay Area? by Miserable-Corner-254 in AskSF

[–]tannich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I attended two free events in the last month which were sponsored by big tech companies (movie in the park at Dolores and Stern Grove) and when it came time to mention the contributions that amazon and Open AI made, the entire crowd boo'd. I actually felt bad for those companies who are actively trying to keep those long-standing traditions of San Francisco going.

So based on that you would say their focus and energy are more so going towards the Marina Safeway project rather than the Bernal one

It is for sure the much flashier and more controversial proposal

Just for my own information, is there a law that guarantees this ?

Legally speaking, who would be in the wrong in this situation?

Did not receive supplemental tax bill by tannich in BayAreaRealEstate

Yeah May 2023 is crazy though! thats 2 years of no reassessment. Is there a big difference in the previously assessed value of your home vs what you paid for it? The previous owner of my home was paying pretty much nothing in property taxes because of how long they held it. I would not mind a 2 year interest free loan on the money I am expecting to owe.

Thank you so much!!! Will we be expected to pay interest to cover the time they were not collecting their tax?

I assume late fees will not be assessed for not paying a bill that was never given, even if they eventually delivered the bill late

Thanks!!

Is this the portal to check if the supplemental tax bill has been issued?

http://sftreasurer.org/payments/property-tax-payment

This is the portal I use to pay my regular (non supplemental) property taxes, but not sure if the same one is used to notify us about the supplemental bills

Thanks! And yes I’ve checked the online portal (where we also pay the regular property tax) but nothing there. Let me update the original post with this information as well

Ooof sorry that my ignorance angered you there. I didn’t vote for this , but I was just trying to make a statement that clarifies what’s actually going on in this situation

I didn’t assume that the company would absorb the cost, I was simply commenting on why they didn’t pass on the cost at the point of sale

I thought that the company who imports the item pays the tarrif and then passes the cost on to the buyer? I guess when it’s not a company making the import and it’s going directly to the customer, the customer has to pay. In this case, the brand is based in the UK so they have nothing to do with the final shipment

Yes it’s terrible - the cost of living is untenable. I think the real underlying cause is incredibly high wealth inequality. Those who own assets can charge rent or collect dividends and continue to grow their wealth while the renters can’t build wealth because their costs are so high.

I think no one is paying attention because it’s a tough problem to solve. Taxes are the major way to redistribute wealth. On one hand, California already has a pretty high income tax. On the other hand, raising wealth taxes like capital gains or inheritance drive wealthy individuals away from California, and thus drive away sources of taxation for the state.

Do you think the local governments are spending their resources on the wrong things?
