1000% agree. My property value in regards to property tax goes up a straight 12% every year even though property values are going down in my area. Highway robery.
Hypothetically…….. We are being taxed on money we never made.
Let that sink in.
If I bought my property outright for $160,000 in 2009
Now the county says it’s worth $446,000.
Did I sell it? No.
Did I make a profit? No.
Did I get a check for $446,000? 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.
It’s time people start to notice.
@KyleCrabbs Good info. Any chance you'd like to do a "way to early" list of the rookies that are starters, major contributor, backup or barely made the 53? Always enjoy your in depth analysis.

@AdamSchefter@PSchrags Mr. Schrager is the NFL Draft "Prognosticator of prognosticators" and as a Dolphins fan this draft may make me wish Grier were back. I would not wish that but it does scare me due to the Medical. Using this draft, I would like Loane at 11 and Z Young at 30 or trade back.
@FinsXtra@SNFonNBC Can you take the Dolphin, Helmet and colors from 80 to 89 put it over the top of the sunburst style of 2018? Using colors from 80 to 89 of course. That would my favorite new logo.
@KyleCrabbs How would a first round swap with Dallas and a 3rd sound? Miami would get pick 20 and a third from Dallas and Dallas gets pick 30 and Brooks? Is this even a possibility?
