Texans deal with some of the highest property tax bills in the country.

This is one of the main problems I see with Texas. Over the years, they have allowed the government to expand, due to ever-increasing influence of bat shit crazy libtards.

Rather than keeping the government small, like the original "Republic of Texas" concept, they have allowed it to expand to a point of being burdensome on the people. Because they want to keep their income tax at zero (which is a great thing), they have paid for this government expansion by increasing property tax.

The increases have got to the point that some old-timer Texans can no longer afford to pay the property tax on their own home.

An income tax can often be reduced at the individual level, but property taxes are much more burdensome to deal with.

If the government does not reduce in size, this problem will only get worse -- until poeple screetch enough that they demand a solution, which will come in the form of bat shit crazy libtards pushing for an income tax.

At that point, they will have BOTH an income tax AND high property taxes. All because they did not push to reduce the size of government.
