[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  So it looks like he's updated his proposal to focus on homes $1.5m+ and also 5m+.  I'm a little better with this, although it seems that with inflation, this will need to be updated in 10 years when 1.5m is no longer a "mansion."

In other words, OP, as long as it doesn't cost you, it's fine. You want stuff for free but don't want to have to pay into the system to get it.[/quote]

LOL.  "I'M barely getting by with my 1 million dollar home, but HE is rich with his 1.5 million dollar home."[/quote]

We stretched and stretched to buy our home 10 years ago at WAY less than 1 million. It happened to be a good investment and is appraised at just under a million now.  But that doesn’t mean that we can afford some kind of luxury home tax. It means that we are a couple of poors who made a smart real estate investment.

Yup. Out here in Fairfax County, they are doing a lot of 'socioeconomic redistributing' under the One Fairfax plan. Letters went out here in Great Falls to at least one of the elementary schools about 'redistricting the high school'. This means that they will be taking part of Great Falls and moving them out of Langley to Herndon, which is gang-ridden. This means our property values will plummet and probably make our area hard to sell. Now had the powers that be not destroyed Herndon High by massive immigration and sanctuary policies, the school would not be gang-ridden. But they did and the brilliant idea is to use some of Great Falls to fix the problem.

I feel for you and encourage you to read more about socialistic policies and how they promise the moon, but really is theft.[/quote]
