This particular situation is a little more extreme, but you’d be wrong. Homeowners are seeing their property taxes raised by criminal percentages nationwide. Thankfully most are fighting back.
This mfer not knowing how municipality finances work…
Fight back against corporate greed making every part of your life more expensive, including your cities and counties work and maintenance projects, which requires them to raise taxes to stay solvent.
But here in KC people saw 100% to 150% increases, which was so ludicrous that the state tax commission stepped in and capped increases. We also just voted to recall our county executive who defended the assessments
And our scenario is not unique. It’s happening everywhere in this country.
Even though there is a legal process for tax assessment, that doesn’t mean it isn’t abused or corrupted. Also doesn’t make it okay for the county to levy unfair taxes to homeowners.
What you actually mean is that the housing market is hot dumping a bunch of unearned wealth on every asshole who bought a house in the last 50 years meaning that with the extra wealth you get to pay additional taxes.
Fuck you for shitting on people who own a house to live in.
Fuck you for shifting the blame away from corporate house flippers and other people who buy houses as investments instead of as a fucking place to live.
Fuck you in general for implying that economically forcing people out of their homes because some rich fucks want them is the fault of the homeowners.

I know how they are supposed to work, sure.

Sure thing.
Thank you for your opinion. I hope you have a nice Wednesday.
