Nothing is limited by feasibility or scruples.

Here's a few ideas to get the ball rolling for both State and Federal legislation.

Legislative mandate to FURLOUGH Government employees FIRST in the event of any government shutdown

Legislation to explicitly limit states of emergency to defined periods of time

Declaration of states of emergency trigger snap elections within one year of declaration

Designate Big Tech platforms as Publishers

Repeal Smith-Mundt

Defund Government Schools

National No-License Concealed Carry

No Property Tax on Primary Residences

Legislation that punishes False Rape and Hate Crime Claims with the same sentencing the crime itself would have.

Legislative districts determined by zip code, no redistricting

Loser pays litigation reform

What say you?

Property tax is a tax on assets that have been bought with taxed income (income tax) at taxed price (sales tax). It’s a tax designed to destroy the accumulation of wealth, and therefore it’s a tax on the stabilization of your life. It’s an immoral tax that should be removed, no matter what it currently funds.

Furthermore, it perpetuates poverty if it’s the main funding of schools. Impoverished area—> low amount of property tax

Low amount of prop. Tax—>underfunded school

Underfunded school—> unprepared citizens

Unprepared citizens—> low wage or unemployed

Low wage or unemployed—> lower property values=impoverished area.

Good logic train there. I’d rather get rid of the income tax.

Less income tax -> more money in pocket

More money in pocket -> more ability to buy property

More ability -> increase demand

Increased property values -> more property tax

Property tax goes to funding schools and people have a greater stake in their community because their living somewhere incentivizes taking care of community.

That’s my take on it.
