While we're at it, abolish primary-residential property taxes after you've paid in long enough. I've paid in for over THIRTY YEARS, the amount has doubled in the last 12 years, it's KILLIN ME man, is this absolutely necessary?? It's why older homes fall into disrepair, some of them are so elegant & beautiful and should be tended to with the bloated tax money they steal from the owners who love them. (Yes, I live in a Blue State ??)
Yes, yes and yes. You can pay off your house, but the property taxes never go away. Enough already.
Curious though how we would fund the local government without some property tax. True that they are way too high in many areas, but wouldn't a reasonable property tax be the most fair since property owners have the most to benefit from functioning infrastructure?
But only home owners and land owners are taxed! Those that live in Apts. and Fed. Housing don't pay property tax., Well maybe on the car they drive.
It's rolled into their rent so it's invisible to them, did you think the landlords pay the property taxes out of their own pocket?
