Property taxes must go away for people 65 and older

Great idea for older folks of limited income. Perhaps an income cap so rich folks pay something and exempt local taxes so towns donât go broke providing free services if lots of old folks live there.

Absolutely! I want to remove all taxes and switch to tariffs. As for property taxes, I think itâs wrong that you can lose your property if you cannot afford property taxes. I donât care how old you are. You shouldnât be able to lose your property. Itâs not really yours if it can be taken away.

Three quarters of my mortgage payment is to pay property taxes. Where I live, I donât get ANY services from my community. Also, I never had any children, and school districts get a great chunk of tax money. If you have kids, great, pay the money. Why should I?
And my taxes went up over $1000 bucks this year.
End ALL taxes period!!!
Thatâs in this thread: Dissolve the IRS, replace it with NOTHING
People are mostly debating how to slash it. Iâm obviously biased, but I think my proposal (currently at the bottom) is pretty good.

Completely agree! We are taxed all over the place when we have been paying in our entire life. There should be an age when you no longer have to pay taxes

Fantastic idea. Imagine all of the elderly people that will now be able to keep their homes that they either inherited or worked hard to retain.

I like that! Most shady people will prevent paying income tax indeed. Exempt people from taxes that make under 100k. Exempt groceies from sales tax, but charge a sales of 30% on luxury items and items that are unhealthy! Coca cola, gucci bags etc.

Elimination of IRS / Reduction in Taxation Proposals a summarization of What most Citizens donât know!
This is a partial list of Policies listed under Economy:
âAbolish the IRS, Simplify The Tax Code, end Self Employment Tax, Flat Sales Tax, End Property Taxes, Veterans Should Be Tax Exempt, IRS Dismantling, End Federal Income Tax in Favor of National Sales Tax, No Tax on Homes or Land After Payoff, No Taxes for Seniors, Rev. Al Sharpton should be paying taxes, Eliminate Capital Gains Tax on Housing, No Capital Gains Tax, One Time Roth Conversion Plan, Estate Tax, Taxes Paid to the State not Federal Government, .1 Cent Tax on Stock Market Transactions, Stay at Home Mom Income, Property Owners Taxation, No Property Tax on Primary Home, Implement a National Consumption Tax Effectively Eliminating IRS and Federal Income Tax, Less Government Intervention Eliminate Taxes for Small Business, Student Loan Payments are Tax Creditable, End the IRS by Implementing a Flat Sales Tax, Abolishing of Property Taxes, No Federal Tax On, Tax Elimination Strategy, Tax Remittances, Simplify the Tax Code Eliminate the IRS, Raise IRS Reporting Limits on Casino Winnings, Raise Casino Jackpot Amount W2/ Taxes, Replace Income Tax With a National Sales Tax on Online Sales, End All Inventory Tax, Pre Tax Student Loan Repayment, Flat Tax, Simplify Tax Policy, End All Income Tax, â
Each of these Proposals fail to attack the Root Cause of ALL Our Taxation Policies. 1913 Amendment 16 was passed and gave the government UNLIMITED Taxing authority.
Sixteenth Amendment
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
Under Amendment 16 the government can establish a UNLIMITED, UNEQUAL Tax on anything government defines as income!
Please understand the above listed Tax Policy Changes will not work. They are ALL dependent on a current Administrations ideologies and ability to change them where Taxation is concerned. A new Administration could come in and change or dispose of each listed Policy.
Please consider this proposal to amend the United States Constitution Amendment 16:
This proposed amendment would eliminate direct taxation and restore the Founders concept of indirect taxation in the United States. Some examples, Indirect Taxation equals NO Income Tax, Property Tax or anything other than equal Sales or Stamp Taxes.
This would restore the original sprit and Protections of Our Constitution Reestablishing Citizen control over taxation. Before Amendment 16 in 1913 government could not apply direct taxes on the Citizenry. Therefore Amendment 16 is the root cause of Our taxation problems. Repeal is mandatory and would solve 95+% of the suggestions listed above and on this sight.
Repealing Amendment 16 will end the tyranny of taxation as it pertains to Property Ownership. Currently you effectively do not own Property. If this was not the case you would not fear loosing your Property when you are unable to make Property Tax payments due to sickness or other unexpected expenses. Family farms would no longer be in jeopardy because of Property Taxes. These changes would apply to all Personal Property. There would be no unequal Income tax or other employment related taxation or taxation on savings & retirement.
In short, Repealing Amendment 16 will end the punishment for working, owning and saving. Citizens would again be allowed to say NO to taxation they feel is excessive or unjust. An example would be planing a vacation. You could choose between a location that has a State / County $20.00 per night Occupancy Tax versus a location that had a State / County $2.00 per night Occupancy Tax. The control is in the choice. Locations with extraordinarily high taxation would see receipts fall and go to locations with lower tax rates. The key is in providing the Citizens with choice and equality again. You may not like the tax but at least you know the person standing in line in front of you has paid the same tax you paid no more and no less. Choice and equality in taxation are what I believe the majority of Citizens are looking for.

PLEASE REVIEW THIS POLICY AND CONSIDER MERGING YOURS WITH MINE
THANK YOU
Maybe consider a tax-free policyfor seniors who choose not to collect SS during that time and continue to work so they can save more for retirement. That way, we slow the drain on SS, help incentivize those who can to keep working (better for mental/physical health in many cases), and aid in their saving for retirement.
A Nationwide sales tax on everything except food and 1 primary residence is the most fair tax of all!
Those that make more money, will buy more/pay more.
It will give added incentive to save for your retirement.
Anyone that already paid taxes on a Roth IRA, could have a credit for those taxes when they spend the money on taxable items.
Are taxes law now? Are they legal?
