  • Yup. Excessive taxation without proper and adequate representation,or services rendered #ThisIsWhyWeCantHaveNiceThings

    Some things even time does not seem to change.

    While not the oligarchy we have now, it had to be frustrating to build a life with your own two hands, only to be victimized and preyed upon by the state.
    Many people foreced out on tax bills alone.
    Think about that, taxes quadruple and you still have no county or state services to speak of, and years and years(and hundreds of millions paid in property taxes) later we still have to self finance our health center and fire brigade. 🤦

    Anywhere else,in a democracy, we would have someone to hold accountable. A leader who fights for the people and community....Some one to vote in or out. ..
