By virtue of owning property we fund these cunty teachers' unions to the tune of thousands a year. It's a racket, and you can't opt out.

We gotta go after property taxes. Unconstitutional to fund anything but police/fire/trash with them

Unconstitutional to have them at all, how can you say that you "own" something if the gov will take fat bites out of your wallet and send people with guns to arrest you if you refuse?

Property taxes are the worst and most unethical tax. Hell I'd prefer income taxes to property taxes. Sales taxes are the best option though.

The mere existence of property taxes means you never actually own anything subject to them. Ever. You're only renting from the government and paying someone else for the privilege of renting from the government by "buying" the item from them.
