🚨 Michigan taxpayers spent hundreds of millions of dollars on a secret deal to bring a semiconductor plant to the Flint area, but they weren’t even allowed to know the company’s name. Today, there’s no factory, no 7,400 jobs, and no economic miracle. Just an empty field in Genesee County and one question: who is accountable?
Michigan spent billions of taxpayer dollars on major corporate subsidy deals that promised more than 20,000 jobs. A new report says only about 600 of those jobs have materialized so far, roughly 3% of what was promised.
I'm being taxed on money I never made. Let that sink in. I bought my property outright for $210,00 in 2020.
Now the county says it's worth $575,000. Did I sell it? No. Did I make a profit? No. Did I get a check for $575,000? No. But my taxes jumped like I did.
That's the problem. This isn't income. This isn't cash. This is a number someone decided on paper
- and now I'm being billed for it.
If my stock portfolio doubles, I don't pay taxes until I sell. If my income doesn't increase, I don't magically owe more income tax. So why does owning a home work differently? Why am I being taxed on unrealized gains?
A house isn't just an investment - it's where people live. And this system means you can do everything right, pay off your home, and still get squeezed harder every year because of a number you never turned into money. You don't truly own something if you can be taxed out of it. This isn't about "services" or "inflation." It's about being charged for value you never received And people are starting to notice." Plus your insurance triples based on a government made up number. They are screwing everyone. Renters and homeowners.
