    income tax.

    the wealthy dodge this by a bunch of schemes that don’t count as ‘income’.

    I hate paying property tax, but reckon it’s the only way to get money out of the fortunate ones that are lucky enough to own a chunk.

          Ask your city clerk about it. That person can tell you what the city/county/township meeting format is and how to participate. But basically, you go to the meeting, bring some photos to support your claim, and discuss the matter like a civil human being. It’s not rocket surgery. You don’t need a lawyer either.

        but that’s not going to be comparative to the amount of wealth they own though. Unless of course you artificially raise the value of land, but that’s not going to make it any more expensive now is it?
