The low income people living in apartments (whether or not they are on public assistance), have four kids in school and pay NO property tax.

Wrong. The owner of the building pays property taxes from the rent fees he collected so those people who rent instead of own still indirectly pay property taxes.

LOL! Dude, chill with all that "WRONG" crap :eek: Especially when you didn't actually read what I said:


A.) Low income housing is subsidized by the state / federal government. The Taxes paid on that building are paid by tax payers because their rent is subsidized by the state / government.

B.) If we are talking about regular privately owned / income property apartments (non subsidized / HUD / section 8 etc) like in your example above....how many of them have school age children? So he is still paying property taxes, which fund the schools when he doesn't even have children. So, what you said STILL makes my point.


ANYHOW....let's get back on the topic of sales taxes and Amazon. I don't want to have to move my own thread to the soap box because I hijacked it with my stupid anti-tax rants. :D
