Hello Everyone, I got home from work and found a letter in my mailbox from the city. It seems my property has been reassessed and increased by 47,000 dollars. My home wich i finally paid in full three years ago is now going to coat me 5,000 dollars a year in property taxes. I got rid of the bank but now a new slave owner is asking me to pay up to live in my own home. Whats really going on. They killed the business owners and are laying the loss of tax revenue onto the home owners. These thieves are stealing from their own citizens. And don't get me started on the innumerable fees everywhere. Firehydrent, garbage can fees, wheel tax ( every car in the city pays 40.00 for each wheel touching the road) this is thievery. Taxation without representation. Thieves!!!

Been an ongoing issue in Jackson County, MO. There is now a class action lawsuit against the county for their illegal behavior. All the people on the board... somehow their taxes were lowered. They hired an out of state third party to do the tax assessments this year, and most people saw a 150%+ increase to what they were paying previously. And about 85% of property taxes go to the schools which never seem to have enough money. Our school district used to be top in the state. I'm not sure it's even top ten, but they had the money to spend $20+ million to buy up land. One of the things they bought was the city water park. And apparently they're running it now? It doesn't make any sense!
