On the radio I heard a talk show host say that allowing some people (in this case, elderly and disabled homeowners) to defer property taxes (as long as they stay in the home, i.e. until they move, sell, or die) is an idea that any conservative can support. (The taxes would be paid, with interest, when the house is sold or inherited.)
What is the conservative basis of supporting it, or at least, why do or should conservatives support it?

Yet most of Obama's appointees dont pay their taxes.
First post from a right winger and of course the classic "blame Obama" comes out,..I wonder if any thread can make it past the first page without the goons throwing in their dodge, twist, and "blame Obama" troll tactics.

As a conservative, property taxes of any kind are violation of individual liberty. Can you with a straight face claim a person is the sovereign owner of their property if they must pay property taxes? Does that not defeat the entire purpose of ownership? Can one keep their property and refuse to pay property tax? Can they even claim they own their own property when they pay property tax?
A person who pays property tax and claims they own the property is the same type of idiot who buys a car on a loan and claims they own the car.

Well, your post was a bash conservatives post and was posted before the bash Obama post, so you really don't have any room to complain. You started it.

Default on all the government union pensions, shrink government and the above would be a slam dunk IMO.

I am conservative and think this is a compassionate position to take to give a break to the elderly and disabled. These people struggle with health issues and medication needs. It does not cost the state/locality nothing since they will collect all due taxes upon the sale or inheritance. If it was on the ballot in my state/locality I would vote yes.

I'm a right winger?
BTW, you were the 1st one to flame in this thread. You need to look at yourself before spouting off.
Are you seriously that out of touch with reality that you cant see you were (and always are) the 1st one to come to a thread with the intention to do nothing other than flame?
