Re: Abolishing Property Tax?

I always prefer a consumption tax over income tax... it allows you to save when you need to, and keep what you need.
Both property taxes and sales taxes hit that side of the coin. If we ever move to income tax... bad news for Texas.

A reduction in spending, of course. You don't think we have some fat to cut?
You are making the assumption that politicians have a clue. They don't... Spending cuts would never cover it like they should, or they'd never happen, and we would end up like California.
