re: LaTonya has a new way to increase revenue

Property taxes are theft. Plain and simple.

-I paid taxes on my income.
-I paid taxes when I bought the materials with that already taxed income.
-The labor I used to assemble said taxed materials paid taxes, which cost me more because of those taxes, and increased the “cost” of my assembling those taxed materials, thereby increasing the “assessed value” of my home.

Then, just because it’s fricking sitting here, not doing a damned thing, I have to pay taxes again!!! frick. frick. frick. frick. frick.


ETA- It’s like the fricking mafia shaking me down for their annual cut. I’d rather pay the mafia than my city/parish though; at least the mafia might give me a case of Italian wine for my daughter’s wedding and would probably do a better job at keeping the rift raft off my streets.
