Yup. Funny how the people pushing it never mention things like that.
Property taxes should not be levied on homestead property. As an artifact of feudalism, they are fundamentally inconsistent with American opposition to feudal taxation.
The justification for property taxes was supposedly to encourage productivity of the land - not tax people out of their homes because the government employees think they deserve a bite of the pie too.
They don't.

Plus , if more people knew and understood the hidden asset value in our CAFR(Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports), property taxes would be seen as the investment they really are and could be optioned into or out of at will.
But that would require listening to Alex Jones & Walter Burien.
