Heck, at one point it was unconstitutional to have income taxes. I fully agree with this, as to tax something so necessary as income gives too much power to the government, again in my most-humble-more-philosophical-than-political opinion.
I agree with you in principle. Yet, to me the property tax remains the most heinous of all taxes. When you scrimp and save and do what you can to acquire what was before fannie and freddie made it a joke, the "American dream", only to arrive at a point where the gov't tells you that unless you pay them a confiscatory and arbitrary amount that you don't own that home, they do, that IMHO is my definition of tyranny.
