PA Man Pays Property Taxes in $7143 One Dollar Bills-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPRGblJTPRE

In Pennsylvania alone, 10,000 people lose their homes every year simply for not being able to pay the property tax. This is unacceptable. So, while many people are complaining about what I did, many families are being thrown out into the streets because they don't have the ability to pay these outrageous taxes. If you are spending your time complaining about what i did, then I believe your anger is misdirected. We should all be fighting against this injustice.

Also, I think it is important to mention this... I respect my children very much. Yes, we homeschool, but we also listen to their wants and needs. So, if any of my children were to tell me that they wanted to go to Public School, I would let them go. But this is even more reason for me to fight against the property tax. Here is why...

If an educational facility has a guaranteed flow money, no matter how poorly they perform, then that facility has absolutely no incentive to provide better quality service at an affordable cost. This will always happen in government school because they know they will get your money no matter what via taxation. People can complain to them all they want about quality or cost of education, but they have zero motivation to change things. They will get your money no matter what, and they know it.

On the other hand, if individuals had the opportunity to choose between private schools, then each school would have to perform at it's best. Schools would compete each other for students. The most innovative and reasonably priced school would be the most popular. The less fortunate children could become students of the private schools through donations. Individuals could donate to the schools of their choice. If a school fails to perform, then individuals can either remove their children from the schools or stop donating to them. This competition between the schools will incentivize each school to provide the best possible service at the most affordable cost.

In the current system, there is very little innovation. The system we have today is based on the Prussian school system from the early 19th century. This is unacceptable. Children do not need to be segregated into groups based on age to become educated. Children don't need to be locked in dreary buildings all day in order to learn. Children don't need to move from classroom to classroom to learn. Learning should be a beautiful and amazing experience for kids. It should not be forced, but instead, it should be encouraged.

So, this is why I would like to see the government out of education. It stifles innovation. It raises costs. Competition is the only way we will even begin to see lower cost of education. Competition is the only way we will see new and amazing methods to educate children. Competition is the only way we will ever achieve the highest quality education. Competition is the only way we will unleash the true brilliance in so many children.

So, yes, even if my children were in public schools, I would still be 100% against any type funding that forces people to participate

Nevada was the first state to pass legislation that gives parents a choice. Each student will have a $5,000 allotment to be used at any school of choice.

Promptly, the teachers union and others filed a lawsuit to stop the law. They reject competition.

People are losing their homes, No one in the US can own a house because of property tax. Because if you don't pay this extortion, they gonna take your home away. It so high because they pass school levies all the time, that people are losing their home because they can't pay it, there's no way.

At the very least, someone should be discussing a system for income based property tax, where no one loses their home because they can't pay their property tax. Gary Johnson is the most likely canidate who will address this. He is calling to abolish income tax in favor of a consumption tax. and cut spending by abolishing things we don't need, like the NDAA, the patriot act, the Federal reserve and the IRS. He is the only one saying these things.

Home ownership should be sacred. If your house is paid for, even if it has been in your family for many generations, and no loans has ever been taken on it, It's still subject to taxes, and these are ongoing taxes, not just a one time thing. Therefore I contend that in America, no one can own their own house. Not possible to own your home. It can be taken away if these taxes that really has nothing to do with houses and land aren't paid. These taxes I guess mostly go to schools. If or not you have kids in school, ever had kids in school, or ever plan to have them in school. Even if you do have kids in school, I'm not so sure your getting your money's worth.

Schools are outdated when you compare them to something as simple and easy as internet access. Worldwide information at your fingertips, can without a doubt replace a school, and at a fraction of the cost. There is nothing you can learn in school that you can't learn way better by spending time on the internet. For the cost of one year of property tax, you can buy your kids one of the best PCs on the market.

Like schools, most law enforcement agencies have become outdated. At the very least we should be looking at a major downsize. and the same goes for the military. There is so much spending tward the military that many of the toys they get spill over to the local police and sheriffs. What happens when they run out of room for things that have no practical use. Both the military and the local police including the sheriffs will make a use for them needed or not, and more people will die because the cops want to play with their toys.
