Somone named "john" was complaining about Lincoln, Nebraska property tax rate of 2%. Which is actually appr' moderate. Read below:

4.Butler County, PA and Maui County, HI (0.22%)
5.Elmore County, AL and De Soto County, LA (0.23%) ..."
**so, let's keep things in perspective. BUT I suspect most people who complain about ANY taxation at all are more your Libertarian ilk. THEY benefit from the rest of US who pay taxes (firefighters, public roads & the US Interstate, etc), while probably lying on their tax filing & *probably cheat & pay very little!
*Bottom line, go find an island that's uninhabited & create--from scratch!--your own society there! (there's already a movement of Libertarians trying this), Leave the rest of us grownups alone!
