Property taxes = Communism, The US is a Communist Nation
Communism - a political theory derived from Karl Marx, advocating class war and leading to a society in which all property is publicly owned and each person works and is paid according to their abilities and needs.

Property rights are the foundation of capitalism, and yet, our local county governments own all the property (and they're subject to state and federal laws).

The rest of the definition can be found in public education, business license requirements, building license requirements, zoning laws, welfare, food stamps, disability, unemployment insurance, and the gazillion other policies that permeate every facet of our lives.

I'm not saying we should get rid of these things overnight, but we should restore property rights ASAP. Government should not be able to take property from citizens for any reason, but especially in the case of someone failing to pay their taxes.

Property tax on one's primary residence should be abolished nationally. It's unconstitutional.

As far as I can tell, all counties require a property tax. Though, I'm not sure if all counties will steal your property if you don't pay.

Definitely. It's also something I think almost everyone who owns property can agree upon.

I suppose that's a start, but I don't put much stock in the judicial system. Judges are probably the worst of the 3 branches.

Agreed.

Also, labor should not be taxed. How can you justify taxing a man's blood sweat and time?

You wanna tax something? Tax investment income.
