  1. Many people are waking up--that's the only real hope for America--we are starting to hear the term "Who is John Galt" more often than ever. I was familiar with it when I read Atlas Shrugged in 1957, but it seemed like an eternity before others in the mainstream started paying attention to what Ayn Rand was demonstrating through the plot in A.S. Now there is a movie, and part 2 in production. I learned a lot about the IRS and prison system in the 1970s. Read "The Creature from Jekyl Island."

  2. All I know is that this bubble in the market has caused my property taxes to quadruple in ten years. If the government wants the poor to have housing, then ABOLISH THE PROPERTY TAXES! My home is paid for, yet I receive a property tax bill every year equal to original purchase price of my property, 46 years ago. Wait a minute… if I have to pay the government on a regular basis, then I must not own my home, which I paid for, which is mine, because I’m effectively paying rent to the government.

  3. All I want to know is how can a person who earns less than $9,000 annually (before taxes) end up owing the town six figures in back taxes? Something's wrong with this picture. A home is a shelter, not an income production machine that is taxable!

  4. Perfect description of the situation! I could not have said it better myself! On a serious note, these 'children' are in control of our country. They're there because 50% of the public are below average intelligence. Hence, the tragic flaw in Democracy.

  5. I know. I wrote extensively on Feudal Land Title and the property tax. But people need to realize that America was formed as a bulwark against serfdom, and we all need to replace the property tax with rightsized government and less immoral ways to fund it.
