| Message | Mr. Speaker, My party proposes the return of Property Tax. Mr. Speaker this party and this government has realized that every year we loss $200 Million due to uncollected property tax. Although some may say that that $200 Million would not do much, but it is crucial for our failing economy. Property taxes pay for our most important social services. If you don't want to pay property taxes then consider what you lose. No free public education. An educated public provides the best security of any social program. They are healthier, commit less crime, and contribute more to the community. With out property taxes you can also say good by to public services like police and fire. You'll be on your own to defend yourself from criminals and what will you do if you have a fire? Perhaps some of you are fine with that but that would certainly be a step back into the life of the "wild west". What about maintenance of the roads to your property? Perhaps, those who wish not to pay property taxes should be offered that choice- but it should come with the fair consequences of not having any of these services. I'd like then to compare the property values of those tax delinquents with those communities that pay property taxes… something tells me that the communities with paved roads, police protection, and education will see the profits of their decision. |
