Before the 10% cap I routinely got hosed with over 20% increases. Protests seem to accomplish little except for wasting time and raising your blood pressure. Each year I receive the 10% appraisal increase (they call it a cap, but in reality it is a "guranteed by law" increase).

With all the new people moving into my county each year, and the revenues increasing at a steady 10% pace annually, where in the hell is all that money going? Our infrastructure is crumbling, city services never get any better (usually worse) and the rates on city supplied utilities rise steadily. Hmmmmmmmmm...

"the revenues increasing at a steady 10% pace annually, where in the hell is all that money going?"

Could it be to health insurance benefits and retirement packages?
