I understand what you are stating and disagree, as that is the Progressive idea of "Fairness".
If you own the land, and paid taxes during the course of the purchase, then how is it even in the world of right or that it is okay that a person be taxed continually every year?
It is like when we have gone on Cruises. They say the price for the cruise is $1999. But, then you get hit with fueling surcharges, port fees, an automatic 15% paid for gratuity to the staff and then additional taxes.
It is a way to nickel and dime people to death.
If the county needs money, then a single source of revenue is to be established, not 2 blatant ones and 10 stealth taxes.
I don't pay tax every year for my TV, or computer.

Doesn't calling liberals progressives and conservatives fascists ever get old?
No, as I have no problem calling people out. That is the problem these days. Everyone, or most people, are of this mindset that you can't be blunt and tell others off, how it is or anything else.
I have no problem being the person to make these statements, and given dirty looks for it.

Liberals and conservatives are both capitalists. Progressives are usually for mixed economy socialism and revolutionaries are for communism.
Ah...kind of. Liberal is a mind set. Conservative is a way of living. Progressive is a thought process to have people controlled by Govt.
Socialism and Communism are failed ideals.

Study history. Fox News and the tea party do not count for much. They are propaganda pieces!
I don't watch Fox. Don't even have cable TV, hell we don't even watch much TV with that.
And believe me, I have studied history, thus the reasoning why myself and many others are stating what we state of the things that are coming.
