The 'lower property tax' amendment scam

Wow, Jeb finally found a tax cut he doesn't like! Dykeman is only a little amused. Mostly he's outraged at the transparent political publicity stunt that behind "Families for Lower Property Taxes." This is the measure to double your homestead exemption and put Karen Saull in the U.S. Senate. It is likely to end up raising taxes on most people -- businesses and renters in particular -- and squeeze school funding.

My only fear is that this stunt is not nearly transparent enough to guarantee its failure. A scary amount of people will hear "double your property tax exemption" and tune out everything else that follows - including the explanation about why it's all snake oil and iron sulfide . . .

I am in favor of increasing the exemption. The government is going to get their money no matter what. So they will raise the sales tax. That is fine. Then the welfare people will pay, the middle class people will pay and the rich people will pay. I grow weary of the middle class carrying the burden of the country on their backs.
