I'm serious. We want to destroy the FEDS, but do we have to pay taxes for land still?

You are all for it? but in a chicago suburb a 3000 sqft home (I know bigger that my empty nester needs) on .8 acres, with well water(I pump it) , septic sewage(I pump it), and no sidewalks. While schools are pretty good scholastically, they're still a liberal pit.
Current value $600K, and that's cheap for chicago suburbs.
My property tax bill in Lake County is $14,000 / year. Nearly $1200 per month just to live in "my" house.
That's along with income tax at 7% and state and local sales taxes that exceeds 10%.
I understand we need to fund public services but this is ridiculous, especially now that I'm retired. I will be forced to move away from my grandchildren to afford their Christmas presents.
Moving away may be the BEST Christmas gift you can give them…. An example of making smart financial decisions. We have just over 12 acres just across the cheddar curtain in southern WI. Woods, 1 river, 1 stream, pasture land, 1 acre tillable, 3b21/2b farmhouse, barn, corn crib, 3 car garage, wildlife, wildlife, wildlife. Deer, raccoons, opossum, squirrel, wild turkeys, geese, cranes, fish, turtles, coyote, rabbits, bald eagles You name it we prolly have it…. Nature, gods country.. that’s the BEST Christmas gift and MORE!! Move now!
Totally agree, lived in Wales for 10 great years. Been looking but don't want to get too far north, and still have a desire for a bit of property being a Ham radio guy. Parents just passed so have even less connection with NW in.
