The system is rigged against those with nothing to work with.

People do not own real estate. When you pay for real estate, you are buying the right to occupy the property AND pay annual rent(property tax), the majority of which goes to police and fire department services.
If you fail to pay your property tax, the police will remove you forcefully from the property and they will auction it to the highest bidder. You will in most cases lose your entire investment in the property.
High property taxes drive up the prices of everything.
Fk the police, with all respect.

IFIFY: If you won't be stolen from under coercive threats as "tax", the mafia government with a monopoly on violence will harm and steal from you even worse
Fuck the police who deserve no respect and have no honour, merit, nor legitimacy.
Free country my ass.

I appreciate the police as a sort of necessary evil.
In Indonesia, I like their property tax system much better.. you will only pay about $20.00 per year, and won't get evicted for nonpayment.. if you don't pay your property taxes, you can't sell the property until you do.
Our system that evicts people is corrupt and evil.
In Indonesia, you can eat good food at a restaurant for a few dollars, because they aren't needing to include huge property taxes in your bill.
Property taxes push up the prices everything

I could appreciate the police if they were managed and directed by the community, bottom-up, rather than top-down by the corrupt mayor or higher political villains.
Taxes have hollowed out the downtown core of my city, Windsor. Municipal elections in October may change that, but I doubt.
