The biggest expenditure of property tax is public school education,
that's where the real value of paying property taxes comes from. Do
you want to live in a community where all the young people are
ignorant?

EVIDENCE:

The states with the lowest property taxes are LA, AL, WV, MS, and AR.
The states with the highest property taxes are NJ, NH, CT, NY, MA.

Or you could do as another suggested and move to Somolia and have
your money go to support war lords and teenagers with automatic
weapons.

I am opposed to the school system. it is a failure. Just ask any home
schooling parent.
I don't have kids, but look at what the "system" produces.

Your problem. You get to pay for it anyway unless you are prepared to 'live' under a bridge etc.

> it is a failure.

Nope. Most do end up being able to read and write.

> Just ask any home schooling parent.

Hardly what you might call a completely unbiased judge of that.

> I don't have kids,

Thank christ for that.

> but look at what the "system" produces.

Look at what happens with no school system at all.
