[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 205128, member: 704"] Not me. If your a poor sucker working on a salary you better reconsider eliminating the property tax. There are businesses that make a lot of money, but they have so many write offs that they pay little and sometimes no tax. When it gets close they add their wifes name to part of the property, their son's name, their daughters name, etc. Politicians will get their taxes, the schools will stay open, the roads you darn hunters wreck in the country will be built and repaired. The taxes will be paid to the piper, but simply a different type of tax. The only thing eliminating the property tax will do is let some people off with paying almost no taxes of any kind. If your on salary your the smuck that's going to pick up the slack. Remember some people wanting the Game and Fish to kick in money to pay for rural roads that us slob hunters tear up? Well somehow, someway, all that spending will continue. Don't cut off your nose to spite your face. What is wrong is different people paying different taxes because they have different jobs. I live in the country. My house is worth about $250K. My neighbors house is worth about $750K. If he tells me the truth I pay more taxes. Why? Take a guess what he tells me. Oh, and we are neighbors one mile out of town. [/QUOTE]
