There is no foresight in even considering this! It’s a stupid hook to rein in uninformed voters. I suggest we educate the petition holders!😉What are they thinking?
Who is DEFUNDING police, fire, water, education, streets and sanitation?
REPUBLICONS!
If these public “shared cost'“ services are privatized be prepared for skyrocketing prices, lower quality services, zero citizen accountability and zero transparency.
Property taxes are not a funding mechanism. They are a permanent claim on your life and your shelter. you must continue paying the state simply to remain in a home you already purchased, improved, and maintained, ownership is a legal illusion. What you have is conditional permission.
This tax destabilizes families by turning housing into a lifelong liability instead of a secure foundation. It crushes retirees who did everything they were told to do, paid off their homes, and then discovered they still owe rent to the government every year until they die. It punishes investment by taxing improvement itself, discouraging maintenance, expansion, and care. And it fuels misaligned gentrification by pricing people out of neighborhoods they helped build.
Property taxes distort markets by disconnecting prices from voluntary exchange. They feed bureaucracy by creating an ever growing incentive to reassess, revalue, and extract more. And they quietly convert homeowners into perpetual renters in a relationship they never consented to.
Ending Indian equity theft was a real constitutional victory. It acknowledged that taking land without consent is incompatible with justice. But the core injustice remains untouched.
If the government can seize your home for nonpayment of a recurring fee, you do not truly own it. You are leasing it from the state under threat.
A free society cannot call itself free while allowing this to continue.
This video explains why abolishing property taxes is not radical. It is the minimum requirement for real ownership. Look at clip: From our full video "Why Property Taxes Must Be Abolished" (~8 mins)
