JUST IN: Gov. Ron DeSantis on ending property taxes statewide
"You buy a home, you buy land... and then, you've been taxed many times [on that]... is it your property, or not? Just for being on your property, you've got to write a check to the government every year?"
"A lot of people can't afford that. That's a big issue. We're going to be looking at ways to bring people relief from that."
Property taxes are local, not state. So we’d need to do a constitutional amendment (requires 60% of voters to approve) to eliminate them (which I would support) or even to reform/lower them…
We should put the boldest amendment on the ballot that has a chance of getting that 60%…
I agree that taxing land/property is the more oppressive and ineffective form of taxation…
@DefiantLs lol that’s funny, I was a florist for 8 years and can draw a pretty damn good portrait, who is this thing to tell me I’m not creative or artistic. 😂
