Property tax is rent. It means the government actually owns your land, not you.
In some cities the Democrats ruined, like Detroit, the property tax bill wound up being more than the value of the property, so everyone just abandoned their homes. I.e., if your property tax bill is $20k and your home is worth $20k, why bother paying property taxes? Just default and stay there until the government forecloses.

People dont see government as a service they hire anymore.
