Number one I doubt your as usual unsubstantiated figure and number two it's meaningless without knowing what amount your alleged 8% was generated from.
It's like saying a man who paid $10,000 in taxes paid his fair share.
If he paid on an income of $60K maybe he did, if he paid on an income of $5M I'd say he didn't.
I'm going to venture that GD will reply that schools are subsidized by others and that he managed to "beat the system" by avoiding taxation and still gets a free service.
Actually, when we bought this parcel to build our home on, I had no idea there was no portion of the property taxes going towards schools (we knew about the fire). It was actually surprising.
There are several area in AZ like this - part of the original Sun City (in Western Maricopa County, they don't pay school taxes either)
And, I have no idea what you mean by "free service" - What "free service are you saying I get?
Yeah, there is no benefit to a household without children in a given community for the children of others in that community to be in school. hahahaha, love that thinking!
Who said anything about the kids not being in school?
Hence my mafia analogy. "Fair" is what the state, which has a monopoly over legitimate use of force, determines it is.
The "state" operates under democratic processes, if you hadn't noticed. The decisions are made by elected representatives. Unlike the Mafia, if you hadn't noticed.
hahahaha
This is much better than watching "Ren and Stimpy" cartoons!
The "state" is a function of democratic processes, if you hadn't noticed. The decisions are made by elected representatives. Unlike the Mafia, if you hadn't noticed.
hahahaha
The Holocaust was the function of democratic processes.
