  Your right about that, it is a fair thing to point out. However, I will mention that the democratic party has a hostile past to 3rd parties where they would do things like suing them to get them off ballots.

  Here is one example for reference: apnews.com/…/2022-midterm-elections-lawsuits-voti…

  This is democrats and Republicans not wanting people to vote for their candidate of choice because they have to constantly play the game of the lesser of two evils

  I see your point for general taxes, but if the federal and state government are already taking your income and many other things how come they’re also taking so much in property tax? Many other countries seem to be able to protect you and give you what you need without property tax.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘My Property Tax Went From $15K to a Life-Altering $91K a Year’⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yearly property taxes never made sense to me. So you supposedly bought and own something, except if you don’t pay the government then they can just take it away.

  The not owning anything is ridiculous. We need clear regulation that makes it so companies cant do bullcrap like this. If I buy something, I own it, period.

  Give a huge discount up front then hike it back up later, potentially even higher than the original once their dependent.

  Nothing like going to mar a lago and eating a 1 million dollar dinner. We need laws against this type of corruption

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finally, a Linux laptop with a brilliant display and performance that rivals my MacBook (from Germany)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  1440p screen with x11 and wayland works just fine on KDE. Wayland is much better and more performant. Not sure about even higher res.

  I’m not against letting teenagers work as long as there are protections. Removing guaranteed meals and overnight work? Nah.

  European countries should adopt linux and these alternatives instead of paying for windows and Microsoft. Much more private too.

  Roku is the one that bricked peoples TVs unless they agreed to their new terms of service.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Property taxes always made me think that you don’t actually own it, rather its a different form of rent based on property value. I know its the not the same as renting as you have stored value if you sell, but its difficult to call it “ownership”

  They US didn’t fight the Germans because nazis are bad and they wanted to save the jews. They fought the Germans because they didn’t want it to become a superpower that rivaled them.
