[quote=Anonymous][quote]Some on the Council are advocating a DC "Mansion Tax" surcharge (both on sales and basic property taxes) for "mansions" assessed over $1 million. [/quote] Will the idiocy never end? Wait until they find out that there are a lot of middle and working class families (mostly AA) in 16th Street Heights, Brookland, Takoma Park, Columbia Heights and Petworth who live in the houses their grandparents bought in the 1960s which now have assessments over $1m. Let me guess---this is being proposed by the white liberal progressives? The last time this got floated was by David Grosso, but even he had the sense to try to start in the $2M range. [/quote]
