IL property taxes based on government debt make Chicago renters rethink buying a home – ABC7 (Chicago)

The debt associated with Chicagoan Tom Harney's home is $124,000. "When I look at that number coupled with my income tax, I ask myself why am I staying here and not going to a state that's focused on keeping its people and growing? I don't see politicians changing anything," he said.

103 K civic fiscal burden on my cheap bungalow after all those tax paying years! That there is no free lunch is proven by the Theory of Relativity.

I looked up my home, truly shocking. But bigger story, if I’m reading the debt figures that Papas is using correctly, it seems she’s using moody’s/ accural acounting debt figures and not the usual fake dem machine gov cash accounting figues to measure property indebtedness?? Or am I mistaken?? If yes, Papas is truly performing a monumental act of courage in bucking the dem machine lies.

Is Papas the only illinois dem with any moral standing against the hord of self server fake progressive grifters, con artists & hustlers?
