[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like textbook “angry white man syndrome”. Just a standard boilerplate maga rant. “[i]Oh, my property taxes are too high!” “You’re spending MY money on brown people!” “I’ll close my remarks by threatening you.”[/i]

Fortunately there are more than enough good and decent people in MoCo to drown out violent screaming nutjobs like that a-hole. [/quote]

why is it maga?  i'm not maga and my property taxes have almost increased 100% in a decade or so.  why should I be happy about that.

and before you talk about home prices, we havent gotten any better services in a decade to justify 100% increase in property taxes.  51% goes to MCPS and elrich wants a special assessment on top of the increases for Capital projects.

maybe you dont care but people are fed up.  [/quote]

If your property taxes have gone up 100%, that means your house value has gone up by about 90%. That likely means you live in CC, Bethesda, or Potomac. And evidently, despite your complaints, MoCo is still an extremely desirable place to live with great services as demonstrated by the fact that your house has gone up in value so much. And as a percent of the budget, school spending has gone down over time. You almost certainly are MAGA to be making complaints like this, even if you don't think of yourself using that label.[/quote]

Covid drove up housing prices, not the warmth of the county.  the fact that MOCO was one of the last counties in the country  to open back up, and supported covid hysteria drove up housing in all areas, not just the ones you mentioned.

but thats besides the point.   Property tax isnt an unrealized capital gains tax.  its supposed to support the basic services of the county, not find a way for the state to put you in financial distress.

So our property tax increased 100%, and yet Elrich still needs a special property tax assessment on that of the increases to. fund MCPS capital projects.  How can he literally double the income from this and still be in the red.  this is mismanagement of our money, not to mention none of our basic services have improved.

screaming maga to stop any conversation , is why dems have to kick socialists out of the party.  you all have done so much damage and the failing of the mandami, and wilson mayorships will be blamed on dems.  that is how maga keeps winning.
