The governor noted that property owners on the west side Hawaii Island pay around 70 percent of all property taxes, even though far more people live on the east side of the island. The reason, Abercrombie said, is because property values are so much higher on the Kona side than the Hilo side.

Tell me this is satire....

What about the po’ folks that live on the south end of the island? I wish I could afford land there.

They can sprinkle my ashes in a lava tube
