“...eliminate property taxes.”

This guy is dreaming. Making outlandish statements that will never ever happen.

That’s what I was thinking. There’s no income tax here so I’d be interested in this guy’s plan on doing away with property tax.
Also, the Biden regime is continuing the purchase of private property on the border and I sure it’s not for the wall.

Maybe he means ‘statewide property taxes’ - except that we don’t have any in Texas.

Actually, Tennessee and Florida do a lot more like that.

The school tax in Texas is engineered by the state’s Supreme Court and not legislation. A judge says the top 10% counties with school funding tax have to pay for a portion of the bottom 50% funded counties.

That perverted approach doesn’t even happen in Illinois.

I agree this guy is dreaming. Or is just blowing smoke. $$$ to run state government gotta come from somewhere.

A woman was flying in first class and while speaking to the man seated next to her realized that he was a real live rich Texan. She asked the Texan what his business was and he told her ranching.

The woman was intrigued and asked the Texan him how many cattle he had to which he said none. Baffled, she asked how much land he owned and he told her 5 acres. Completely suspicious that the Texan was messing with her she asked where his ranch was. He told her downtown Dallas.

That rich Texan may not be paying income taxes but he pays a boat load of property tax.

Last thing…. If a politician wants to spear head radical change in Texas, the focus needs to be on the Lt. Governor. The governor is an administrator with the limited authority to move discretionary funds around and a bully pulpit . The Lt. Gov controls the legislative agenda.
