Property tax should not exist in a free society Do we own our own property or not? Abolish property tax!

Banks pay you 0.4% interest on your deposits, then take your money & put it at the Fed, which pays them 5% interest on your money. Federal law bars you from cutting out the middleman & depositing your money at the Fed to get the 5% rate the Fed pays banks. This is oligarchy.



Has your lived experience in California gotten 3x better in the past 20 years? Because your taxes and borrowing have gone up to triple spending in that same time. California Population: 2004: 35.6M 2024: 39.4M California Spending: 2004: $155B ($4,350/person) 2025: $510B ($12,940/person)



The sad part about posts like this is New York already has comprehensive PBM law. They regulated reimbursement appeals, audit scope and procedures, and network terminations. A decade since the first regulation and pharmacies make the same pleas for reform. lohud.com/story/opinion/…




The Rapacity Ratio Replacing a catalytic convertor will likely cost $1,000. The thief who stole the old one probably sold it for less than $100. I propose this as a measure of a man's wickedness: How much expense will he inflict on others, to gain $1 for himself? Let's call that ratio his rapacity. Catalytic convertor thieves have a rapacity of roughly 10. For copper thieves, it's closer to 20. A good man's rapacity is negative. For example, a good man might pay $5 to avoid inflicting $1 in damage to others. His rapacity is -5. The grand champions of rapacity are politicians, who will transfer $1 Billion of taxpayer money to an NGO, in return for $1M to their Caiman bank account. That gives them a rapacity of 1,000.

Zohran Mamdani’s advisers plan for socialized housing.. “Housing will be owned by a collective and everyone will be paying 30% of their income, in order to live in their housing.” “If someone makes $0 per year, they live for free — if someone makes $500k per year, they’re paying 30% of that.” Insanity.
