Entry: here we go again Friday, November 14, 2008



I just read in the newspaper that my town is planning to increase its tax levy over 3% for 2009 due to dwindling revenues.

Wonderful.

Times like these, I am so glad I live in the smallest, lest expensive - and thus, lowest property taxed - house in the neighborhood!

I have to remind myself of that when I find myself grumbling about our closet space situation...

hey, we had the same thing. isnt' that sweet.

Got a letter that went dear, homeowner, despite the fact that your propety is worth much less than it was 2 years ago, we're going to raise your taxes to cover a short fall in the revenue.

So when property values do go back up, your taxes will be higher, and we wont have to say we raised your taxes, thanks for playing, sucks to be you.
