Janet Yellen wants to tax our real estate appreciation

[Gilligan]

I'm close to $7k/yr at our place and that is still too high for the "services" I receive from the county.

Close to 8K here..and I completely agree with you. And...we will soon have the fanciest firehouse in the county...with insufficient manning and no hall for public use. Total sham.

Cute.

But we learned just this week your understanding of our debt-based currency and government spending is shaky at best, so maybe you should just sit this one out, mmkay?

My brother and SIL are in north Jersey = $17k/yr. I'm close to $7k/yr at our place and that is still too high for the "services" I receive from the county.

My niece and family live in Lawrence (between Trenton and Princeton). Her husband manages construction projects in the NYC metro area and commutes by train. I ask them every time I see them when they are moving across the river into PA.

I still think they have their sites aimed at people's IRAs & 401K accounts. And the justification is equity. The poor people don't have those, so the middleclass shouldn't have them either.

Yep... I will never understand why two of my parents stayed in Md once retired.

Holy carp!..and I think our MD taxes are bad...

Know people in my old town paying $5G just in school taxes alone for a 15' row home.

As soon as daughter graduates from HS putting Maryland in my rear view.

I dont blame you. My brother and I have been talking about selling the propery we have in Md in the next year or so. When that happens the only reason for me to come back will be a few funeral services and the sailboat show.

Edit... For my magnificent spelling...

I'm not leaving....just going to suck it up. Be a thorn in the sides of Steny, Crosby and any Democrat Govenor as much as I can......I know it won't work but makes me feel good. Moved my "legal" residence to Florida for eight years saved a lot of bucks but all my children and grandchildren are here and if I move I move alone and that would cost more that the taxes.....

And we appreciate that, and I understand fully.
I did The Statehouse thing for a few decades starting in Rockville in the early eightys when they tried to vote in stores keeping ammo logs, on up to 2008 or so.
As time went on it just grew more disappointing.

I only have one kid and no wife, when hes done his walkabout around the globe I will see where he settles. Im done in two years or less and then I will snowbird between Indiana and a sailboat. Gonnna kick around the Caribbean, windward and leewards until hes done. It could be sped up if to much stupid comes out of DC.
