Why are you acting like the guy in article has no agency in this?
He is 72 with what looks to be 5 bedroom house. If he doesn’t like the taxes that come with it, then sell or rent it out and move.

Ray probably calls the fire department to come pick him up when he falls but doesn’t understand why he pays property tax
a flat tax on every transaction would solve this and put every single citizen on the hook for paying the bills. the income tax was supposed to be temporary, and property taxes on paid off homes are immoral, especially when taxpayers are being robbed blind everywhere that we lift the curtain and take a peek.

I get paying for the services but there has to be another way to pay for those services other than property taxes. If you buy it outright you should own it outright.
100% agreement.

while true I’m pretty sure the actual resentment over property taxes is that only property owners pay them
The resentment is that if you quit paying the property taxes, the government can seize your home and evict you.
I know it’s not the exact same as renting a house, but its effect is essentially the same, you never truly own your land.

Such a silly take. It’s such specious reasoning. Sounds smart but it’s not.

Our county has a 30 year property tax rule.
After 30 years, school tax is exempt.
It only works if you have lived in the county for 30 years.

Texas sucks in this. I haven’t had a mortgage in 12 years yet pay 10-20k a year in property taxes I have zero use for. Money in a trash can.
Of course insurance is a scam so haven’t paid those assuoles in 12 years. Play a regular Wednesday round of golf with an insurance guy that will tell you the same thing.

If you are so wealthy and financially smart and an independent think how do you not know how much your taxes are within a margin of 100%?

People should be upset that congressman are paid millions of dollars with our tax money.
Can you elaborate on this comment?
CRS Report
While their salaries are set at around $175K a year, Congressman receive an annual budget between $1.85 million and $2.09 million to run their offices, and Senators receive between $4.30 million to $6.62 million annually.
Isn’t funny how they go in regular people and after a year or two they are millionaires?

What happens if you don’t pay your property taxes?
