Sorry, The Personal Income Tax should come first, for a myriad of reasons, which I will clarify later.
A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. ~~Thomas Jefferson
No worries, I think this is a topic that needs to have more discussion, and people accept taxes as something that "just is". I suggested property first for the sole reason of having actual ownership of real property. Too many times people have lost the homes they have literally built with their own hands b/c the mechanics of the taxes on property create the myth of ownership. If personal taxes are nixed, they could still hold out on releasing property tax for various BS reasoning, and no one would ever own land again, regardless of how much you keep of your income. If no taxes were paid, eventually the cabal would own it.

I'd agree with property before income or anything else.
Property tax makes it impossible to own your property. The government owns it. This is far worse, I feel, than having to pay a portion of whatever your income is.
One thing to consider is that it's only ever a percentage of what you make, whereas if you get a property and then lose your job, you may not even be able to afford the taxes on it. Whereas with income tax, you don't have to pay tax on an income you don't have.
An income tax is much more in favor of freedom than a property tax. With income tax, you can in theory quit your job and live off the land. With property tax, you can get fucked and die with nothing to show for it, since even if you do try to live off the land in the middle of nowhere without ownership, it'll be taken from you the moment you get anywhere since you wouldn't own the land you're trying to live off of.
Obviously income tax is shit and should go as well, to be clear.
