My county has cranked up property tax 6-8% for 8 years in a fricking row now, even though the local market is cold. Basically triple inflation rates. My mortgage is about 2/3s taxes at this point, forcing me to dip into savings so many times I basically have none left. If they do this shit a couple more times I'm going to literally be taxed out of my home, and basically everyone I know is in the same position. It's just so fricking bleak and feels like my entire community is on the brink of collapse. Up till 8 years ago the rates had been only 2 or 3% for decades. I don't know how I'm going to make it.

Good fricking questions, deadbeat junkies is a decent portion. To avoid accountability and our sunshine laws most of it has been dumped into 'discretionary spending'. Literally everything that has a regular budget like employee pay and pension, roads, parks all that shit is flat. The only 2 areas that have increased are discretionary and Sheriff. The jail is worn out and too small for all the violent hobos But everyone hates cops now so they won't build a new one. We pay triple to neighboring jails to house these people.

Actually I live in small rural town in a rural state. The problem is our counties are huge. In the wake of trump the nearest college town lost their shit; and despite constantly crying about gerrymandering, redistricted and consolidated so that all commission seats have a portion of the city in them to suppress all the small towns. So now the county is just an extension of their citys government.

I knew someone in the US who had to move away from just outside of Chicago because property taxes took a significant portion of her income. This was 10 years ago. She moved to Florida......

The economy is doing great, chud. Why can't you see that? Your taxes need to be raised further so the Jewkrainias can get some more money (and another luxury mansion for Zelenskyy)

I don't think my county is funding foreign wars, but I could be wrong.
