[quote=Anonymous]OP, if you have problems paying for raised property values and proportional property taxes, then you may no longer be able to afford to live where you live and you need to find someplace cheaper to live.   In fact, once you sell your home, you'll realize all of that implicit profit as actual explicit profit and have more money to care for your child.  I'm sorry that you have a special needs child who required you to give up your job and to SAH to care for them, and that you don't care for the services that your taxes provide to the community, but the other guy had just as much right to ask for higher taxes and more public services as you had to ask for lower taxes.

If you don't use the public services that your taxes are paying for, then maybe it is better for you to find someplace else where they put less emphasis on public services and taxes are lower.  But it sounds like the county and community where you live values those public services more and they want more of them.  It sounds like you are not aligned politically with your neighbors and should seek a place where you are more aligned.[/quote]
