So you don't have locally collected property taxes. Wow! How does the local government run? Does it depend on a sales tax or income tax?

If not, does that mean that most of your taxes go to the state and the feds?

If so, doesn't that mean that most of the decisions about what you can and cannot do are decided at the state and federal level?

You may have lucked out in that the state and the feds don't care about what happens in your neck of the woods, but they will eventually. And wouldn't it have been better all along if your local government collected most of the tax dollars you had to spend, and your local government made most of the decision about what you can and cannot do?

Or would you prefer to leave those decisions up to the state and the feds who are almost impossible to reason with?
