Come to the D.C. suburbs where you'll pay $5000/year in property taxes for an average single family home. Once your mortgage is paid off you have to pay $450/month in taxes or the government takes your home.

You don't have to go to D.C. My home is a single family home, middle class, fully paid off, in the Dallas area and they charge me about $475.00 per month in property tax. It just went up.
$450/month in taxes or the government takes your home.

That's a $450 **RENT** bill from your landlord, the government! Hey!,,,,and Silly you thought you "owned" the government's house.
