When the liberals around here want to raise property taxes, they used to only offer one proposal, but they kept getting defeated.
Then the libs learned to submit multiple property tax hike proposals:
1st would be a number beyond real. Its purpose was to make the remaining proposals modest in comparison.
2nd would be a reach number, but it would appear more reasonable compared to the 1st.
3rd would be a number they could live with, that would look more reasonable compared to the 1st and 2nd.
Maybe the Libs' plan was to float $3.5 trillion to make $1.5 trillion look more reasonable.
Instead of nanny government taking care of us from cradle to grave, why don't they reduce payroll taxes, consumption taxes, government fees, and property taxes that comprise their oppressive tax regime.
Instead of critical race theory, what about critical class theory to address the institutionalized systemic classism that oppresses poor and working families?
