One good reason to vote for Dan Patrick is property tax reform. He has been working on this even before his time in the senate as a radio talk show host.
Lower the burden on individuals homes and raise the state sales tax so this burden can be distributed among all citizens..even illegal aliens.
It's deplorable that we have to pay perpetual rent to government on property we own. If it were a very nominal amount for city services and roads, that would be one thing. But I'm paying the monthly rent of a small apartment!
My idea is a lifetime cap on property tax per owner per property, either as a percentage of a base value, or a fixed dollar cap.
