The mill rate on cars in Little Compton is $13.90. With Prop 2 1/2, you’d only save excise tax money in the first year. It would be a wash in the 2nd year and then cheaper in Massachusetts beyond that. Insurance is a different story. City of Boston auto insurance rates are absurd.

Not sure I understand? The mill rate throughout Mass. is $25.. Prop 2 1/2 is for real estate taxes. I thought it it drops similarly in RI for the 2nd year, 3rd year and so on...?


But yes, the real killer in Boston is the insurance rates. You're going to come out ahead in LC regardless.

It was definitely not intentional and my apologies if it seemed to be. I think it's pretty clear who posts what, regardless of how someone appears to be quoted in another post.

Did I say anything after he said he it was a mistake?


Nope.


Nor was I even that harsh in my post.

I didn't think it was harsh. You were just pointing out the mistake, which I would have done too.

It might not have bothered bostongymjunkie, but people need to watch themselves around here with anything that can be perceived as sarcasm or subtle hostility. It has been driving posters away from this forum.

Really dude?


You know ormari...with the bar you set here, I don't know how anybody else could even qualify to post here...


But you ever consider like, IDK, trying a little kindness towards others once in a while? Would it really kill you? Is this forum as a welcoming place to exchange information really too far out???
