What's your point here? Should grandma and grandpa that paid off their mortgage and now living on SS benefits pay property taxes for this? I don't believe they should. IMHO, only the people who choose to send their children to public schools should pay. The public schools have become ideology centers for Marxism and Luciferian beliefs. Not many people agree with this. It is high time we break their dystopian monopoly and allow real competition determine their survival. Eliminating property taxes and allowing the marketplace determine success is a fantastic idea that is long overdue.
I have been paying prop tax for 30 years where 60% goes to schools. I have no children. My hubs is 68. Yes, I think we should get a 60% break on paying anymore.
110% Agreed. Consider this. Our founding fathers understood how extremely important property rights were that Alexander Hamilton once advocated only property owners should have the right to vote. I do not necessarily agree with this, but I do understand the rationale behind it. In terms of this thinking, where does our present situation leave us regarding the vote? It has been completely undermined and has contributed to the massive fraud we are seeing today.
My mistake. The state money went to the for-profit school, not the local money. School levies are voted on and neighborhood demographics change. You have a choice on where to live and there's a long gap between your kids leaving school and retirement. It's pretty much your choice as to how much your town extracts from you for school money. The only thing I support more than abandoning your local school district is keeping them running cheap and hungry by withholding levy money.
It's not just levy money. That is really an additional 'fund raiser' to enrich the public schools. Property taxes are used for the basis of funding public schools. I believe anyone not having children or sending their children to public schools ought not to pay property taxes. Under the guise of compulsory education, the government has stole our property rights from all of us. We no longer truly own the land we paid for when property taxes we imposed. Consider this.
