One of the most unjust hardships ever placed on aging people is the threat of losing your lifetime home due to the threat of ever increasing Property Taxes!
As we age, and then retire, millions of people who worked their lifetime to pay off their homes only to feel the harsh reality of living on fixed retirement incomes vs uncontrolled, unreasonable and ever increasing Property Tax’s. Especially when local government wasted hundreds of millions on wasteful spending such as supporting illegal aliens with unreasonable amounts of money, along with other wasteful spending.
When we finally get our homes paid, then Americans essentially pay the government forever to live in our homes. Many people are forced to sell their homes because the Property Tax has become an unbearable burden. Costs to live, medical care, food and regular living expenses never stop going up, but most retirement income becomes static and the results are unbearable!
The ability to be free of Property Taxes, after paying for many decades while working, or a drastically reduced amount, would be a Godsend to all hard working Americans when they retire and reach age 65.
This could be done by initiating a “Propery Tax Relief Program” where offsetting funds would be directed to Counties to offset the loss of Property Tax income, if it’s necessary, or some part thereof.
Money for this could easily be funded by the excessive billions of taxpayer dollars that the US sends to other countries for a variety of reasons that focus priorities on other countries rather than focusing on the citizens of the US that have funded those giveaway programs for a lifetime!
I feel strongly that this “Property Tax Relief Program” would be extremely beneficial to all seniors and would likely generate money back into the counties via additional sales tax revenue from the ability of seniors to buy more necessities.
I hope this idea finds its way to reality!
MAGA!
