[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Real life parent here. I'm OB! Proudly pay my real estate taxes for more than one parcel of real estate in DC, proudly pay for your kid ([b]especially those of you living in apartments or renting houses in ward 2 and 3[/b]), and proudly took advantage of a better public school education in Ward 3 (also volunteered as a parent). No thank you necessary, all paid for.[/quote] Wow, the trolleration continues. You do realize that renters pay real estate taxes, right? It's not like building owners just pay real estate taxes on behalf of their renters out of benevolence. The real estate taxes are included in the rent and paid out of rental income. I haven't entered this thread because it is ridiculous, but come on. [/quote] B.S! Show me where you can deduct real estate taxe on your income taxes! You pay rent! The landlord pays real estate taxes! You live in an apartment you squat and move! Buy a condo, then you have a say![/quote] That's a really good point. It's much like when I go to a restaurant, and there is a 10% tax (in DC, at least) added on to the bill. But since I pay that to the restaurant, and they then batch all of that up and send it to the DC government, I don't pay any meals tax, the restaurant does. Look, this isn't the place for this, but you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. That's been obvious since the beginning of this thread, but it's a little bit more clear. [/quote]
