property taxes

[Electric Chicken]

Government workers are a special breed. They will prop up a bad government to save their jobs.

Unrelated but related to the topic, here we had an election where the Liberals won partly because the government workers that are 1/4 of the workforce thought if the Conservatives won, they would slash their government jobs.
The Liberals won and plot twist, they slashed their jobs.

Yes, it's like 1/4 and you still can't get a government worker to pick up the phone at a government office.

There was an IRS agent that got fired because of DOGE and he went online complaining, and described his job like he was in Vietnam. He literally called it a "tour" as in "tour of duty."

just got my assessment from the assessors office according to them the value of our home went up $50,000 dollars 2 years ago they added $30,000 I don't have the actual tax bill yet but you can bet it will be outragous!!!
Ohio has the 8th highest property tax rate in the nation and the joke of a homestead reduction was $308.00 last year, I would gladly give that up if I could shove it up the governors ass one dollar at a time our politicians did pass 4 half assed bills that would have done little to reduce the taxes but the gov. wouldn't even let that thru and veto them, the legislature tried to override his vetos but only managed to override one!!!
Now as most of you know I was pretty active in local politics rarely had anything to do with statewide politics and it has been 4 or 5 years since I have been active due to major pain but this calls for drastic action so I am coming out of retirement loading up on pain pills and going to work as much as I can gathering signatures on petitions to completely do away with property taxes it is a group called CitizensForPropertyTaxReform.ORG I took some to my grandsons karate class there was 16 adults there and I got all of them to sign and then they had their spouses sign 20 in all and I should have brought more!!!
anyone from Ohio on here I ask that you look into this it is so important for you and your families and we would lead the nation in poperty tax reform, don't just be a signer but sign up to gather signatures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ya never really own a piece of property or land..

Even once the "Note" settled the Bank signs ya the Deed in your name ya still owe "Property Taxes every year until ya die off..

Dont Pay Up or fall too far behind they will go infront of a Judge in Courtroom order a "Sheriffs $ale" or Auction..

Theyll low bid it "Fire-Sale" prices and if ya lucky after they take what ya owed em and always extra "Administrative" Co$ts and Fees ya might still get a check 4 remainder after they get theirs First & Foremost outta ya

I agree look I know OLD PEOPLE bought a house like back 50 years ago much cheaper prices then and hadda sell move on a condo or 55-plus apartments or trailer parks because on just "Social Security" checks they could no longer afford the Maintenece/Upkeep and Property Taxes at much higher "Assement" Prices
