Great article on property taxes below.  Create a value.  Trade that value converting your thought time and effort into currency. Trade the currency for a durable good - land.  Watch as your local municipality steals a chunk of your thought time and effort over and over every year at ever higher rates --- you are RENTING and thought you had made a trade purchase.

Universal Slavery

We all want people who need health care to get care, just as we all want the hungry fed, etc. In accomplishing this, however, it is immoral to revoke another human's right to the product of his mental and physical effort - his property. It is evil to steal from Bob and give to Jane, and this will always be the case, even if Bob is rich and Jane poor.

Medical Crony-ism

A good quote from Dr. Keith Smith: " Corporate hospitals didn’t support Obamacare because it would help the poor and uninsured.  They supported it because they would have guaranteed payment for every person who came through their doors, direct payment from the taxpayers in many cases, with no need to deal with reluctant paying or unsatisfied patients.  How’s that for a business plan, where you get paid whether the customer wants your product or not (insurance) and whether the patient is satisfied with their service or not (hospitals)?"
