Governor DeSantis is pushing to eliminate property taxes in Florida. They should be canceled. The government has taken away home ownership with these taxes. They own our homes if we don’t pay the taxes. They can raise the taxes enough to steal a house from under people.
You bought the land and the home, and you’ve paid taxes over and over, but you still have to pay taxes?
HOLY MOLY! Governor DeSantis is now pushing to eliminate property taxes in Florida.
Property tax is the most despicable thing ever. Paying the government to own your home is absurdity.
If he succeeds, the entire country will change forever.pic.twitter.com/xYNVHPvPaz

I would seriously consider moving to FL if property taxes are eliminated. Look at what happened in Montana with runaway property taxes. Services should be paid by all eligible to vote by 1% flat commerce tax and tariffs.
Desantis for President!
I live in the southern part of Iowa. We have what’s called a forestry reserve that eliminates property tax on land. It’s killing the smaller counties budgets. Our roads suck our schools suck our hospitals suck and several large corporations have warehouses that have brought in immigrants to the point it’s overwhelmed all our public services. I drive a hr to go to the DR because you can’t get in to see anyone local and they suck anyway. Eliminating that program has been proposed for the last 3yrs but big developers and the out of state tv hunters keep it in place along with the Farm Bureau. I’m glad I’m not a politician trying to find the answers.
On a side note one has to wonder if Desantis will give up his governorship. Pushing his wife now, one wonders what he has to hide or if it’s just they are so power hungry he can’t let go. He seems to be trying to upstage Trump in a effort to remain relevant but I think his days in politics are over. It will be interesting to see how this lawsuit over fraud in the Florida primaries turns out. His goose seems to be cooked but not many outlets are reporting it.
I wish he would run for president
The money is spent on projects of varying needs.
That money WILL come from somewhere else.
The point is, where?
How are they going to recoup those losses, pop sales tax another point?
Sales tax would make everyone pay, which, is that ‘fair’?
This does make sense though, you bought the house and the land, now you have to keep paying and paying to keep it? I BOUGHT IT, I didn’t rent it.
Given the money is used for all kinds of crap and doesn’t just go back to homeowners only, it IS fair IMO to have everyone pay via, a higher sales tax or whatever, vs just socking it to those who bought property.
There will be other problems and challenges though. Many entities tie other taxes in with your property tax as well. City Taxes, Zoning Taxes. they’ll throw garbage collection fees on there, storm water removal fees, and all kinds of stupid little fees in there.
At least this way people will get to see WHO is stealing their money now, instead of just, ‘it’s property tax’, they’ll get a line item and see NO it’s NOT feds, it is YOUR LOCAL crooks stealing your money for this that and the next thing, so vote them out.
Property Tax makes you a Slave that Cannot own Property. See, what you kiddos do not know is that people do get old and then they get sick. They cannot pay. Government knows this well, and comes in, STEALS, and then sells the property for its benefit. None of you will escape this , as Government will Steal Your Inheritance, then You`ll be eternal RENT slaves in the Company Store Forever!
Consumption Taxes.. Tarriffs. And, yes … Corporate Taxes; because Billionaires cannot be Exempt from Tax. I do not want old ladies losing their homes; because they cannot slave anymore … SHAME ON YOU, AMERICA!
