Being a senior, I see the dark side of property tax foreclosures. There comes a time for many, especially those on fixed incomes, when they get taxed out of their home. There has to be a better way. We pay taxes for services that we don’t use. If we do keep the property tax, some adjustments need to be made.
So, how is Florida going to handle these problems? How do other states with no property tax fund their programs?
In Florida they get 142M annual visitors from out of state. They are generating massive tax revenue from sales tax, gas tax, bed tax, etc.
They have opportunities that we just don’t have.
There are no other states with no property tax that I know of. Where it’s been tried, in Nebraska and California, it has been a miserable failure.
