How on earth do the public sector unions benefit by keeping property taxes intact?

Wait, I have it now. The public sector unions are HOPING that the feds shut down the oil drilling....

Oh, the Gummint employees are certain to have that attitude. More is always more for them, and shutting down the Oil Patch would just be whipped cream and a cherry on the deal.

I don't really know how I'd vote on it.

Maybe I'm just an old cynic, but if the counties and town don't have property taxes, just imagine the stuff they'll start taxing.....that doesn't have to get posted to every property owner (who is also a potentially irate taxpayer AND voter).

I do believe that I'd prefer to keep a nice tight grip on that dog's leash. Even if I do get billed for the privilege.
