Cut High Property Tax Assessments

Home values dropping? Don’t bet the farm on property taxes getting reduced. Property tax increases to property owners are fast becoming a hot potatoes issue throughout the country. The consuming question normally is: how to stall an one-sided burden of appraisal creep and improve the current systems in place without hurting the state’s ability to collect basic revenue.
Basically it is a subject of bringing in transparency into government by cutting expenses as well as insisting that government perks, pay and benefits mirror the private sector.
Government should mirror the private sector in wage and benefits. Instead government take unfair advantage by getting higher wages than the typical WalMart, Home Depot employee, get to retire in 20 years while the average Joe works till he’s 65.
