FALSE

Property doesn't exist outside of its own environment, there is infrastructure that serves you and your property that is paid for by the state. Sewage and water mainly, then there is electric and communications, not to mention roads and rain drainage systems. You can't exist without these services, so pay your fucking property taxes.

Disgusting. You shouldn't have to pay more or so much for what is already yours.

You never did.

Like you can say you own real estate, but only the government is backing up this claim, with a piece of paper that says so.

And only until they say so.
There was a case in our country where the government decided to build a railway station across an entire island, and they decided to just take some private properties that were in the way.

The law in our country says you can't say no to the government, and they just paid the "owners" the "fair market value". Except that the value decided by the government was like 10% of the actual going Marley price of all nearby real estate.

Basically the government can take it from you anytime.

You don't really own anything.

There are things like the government freezing/seizing accounts, or cases of civil forfeiture when the police finds you carrying lots of cash in person, or that one time that the US government demanded all gold be turned in when the gold standard was abolished, or them stealing purchasing power by introducing inflation via brrrr, or just outright banning large bills like some countries have done, etc.

Crypto imo use the best thing you can claim to actually own, and even that is only while the network still exists, and also until consensus decides you own it (like BSV supposedly had some ideas of reclaiming coins in old inactive wallets).

Making bitcoin the strongest argument for this (having the strongest network and the most stubborn consensus that refuses to change anything).

But in the end, you don't really own anything, except yourself... is what I wanna say, but then there are stories of people waking up in a bathtub full of ice with missing organs. Seems even body parts are easier to take than your bitcoins.

This is the issue with hardcore libertarians including that whole mantra of "you didn't build that" that people fail to understand.
You don't exist in a vacuum, how is this so hard to understand? Roads are paid by all, education is paid by all, healthcare, even in the US of school shootings, is paid by all because when people don't the state does, and since we're talking of the US, are you familiar with a little something called the rural electrification act? you actually think you pay for everything you use? try to understand that the world is more complex than you think

ive been telling people this forever, why should i spend 30 years paying off a mortgage to a bank just to end up paying rent to the government for the rest of my life? property taxes are theft, there is simply no way to justify property taxes when income tax alone should be enough to fund the government.

when the government gets to the point of taxing your home they are just robbing you.

No I'm perfectly intimate with it actually. A little too intimate. I was attacked by the local city school district's Jewish lawyers when I bought my first house and they forced me to pay retroactive back taxes on a reappraisal at the selling price. So I paid $10,000 in taxes on a house I wasn't living in at that time so that local school administrators could take a vacation to Hawaii. Fuck you.

It's not conventional back taxes. The sellers had the house officially recorded at $200k, I bought it for $300k, the local city schools had their lawyer army immediately get that factored in as the going tax rate, and made me pay for that jolted difference for the whole year's taxes despite me buying the place in December. And this has become their new standard practice for padding their discretionary income fund. Imagine going to bat for these scum bags.

Why are all commies incapable of grasping the idea of off-grid self-sufficient living? Is it because the very existence of just one man providing for himself shreds their entire belief system?
