[QUOTE="Fester, post: 374714, member: 6300"] I don't believe it will lower the tax burden but will shift the taxes to a consumerism based system which would be more manageable for people on fixed incomes. This would also be dependent on how the new system would be set up. Whether it be sales tax system who knows? I don't think any tax should be based on your property. Paying for fees such as garbage sewer etc are just that a fee for services rendered and not considered a tax even though there is no way around them. I would probably argue that in general the elderly spend less and therefore would have a lower tax burden. The tax burden would not disappear but again depending how it's set up could help more of the elderly whonhabe more than likely paid there debt to society in taxes. I get there are people that actually like being taxed as they justify it that things just have to be paid for in the public. This is correct as things do need to be paid for and I am not arguing that I just believe it shouldn't have anything to do with your property. [/QUOTE]
