Something like 8 states are pushing this.

Soon I’ll be officially politically homeless.

I don’t think it can stand. There’s a justification for property taxes as properties use and require government services. One cannot say the same for wealth.

I agree. Seems like it is a bad idea.

I doubt that anybodies parents told them that "I hope you grow up to be poor."

Nor income, yet we have broadly accepted “income tax.”

For those wanting to know, this does not impact me.

Although I did just vote yes on a $500M referendum to build a new elementary and middle school and do a bunch of other school renovations. Selfishly, the new schools would be built much closer to me and would likely be finished right in time for our oldest to start middle school at it. I think it adds an extra $400 per year to our property tax.

Thank heavens.

Thank goodness I don't live in Minnesota.

For any number of reasons.

Im in Lancaster PA this week looking for daughter housing. Interesting to be back in the older dense construction of the east.
