Idiots in Okaloosa voted to increase sales tax. I guess somehow we're now even.......
Amendment 1: Failed
This amendment raises the homestead property tax exemption by $25,000 for homes worth more than $100,000. That would exempt the value between $100,000 and $125,000 of a home that serves as the owner's primary residence.
Currently, there are two other homestead exemptions: for the first $25,000 of the assessed property value and for the value between $50,000 and $75,000.
Failed
No: 42 percent
Yes: 58 percent
Who supported it: Republicans in the state Legislature, who put the measure on the ballot because it would lower taxes for almost 60 percent of homesteaded properties.
Who opposed it: Groups that advocate for local governments such as the Florida Association of Counties. Cities, counties and special districts across the state would lose an estimated $752.7 million in their budgets in the first year (school districts would not be impacted). The association claims the measure could force local governments to increase tax rates and commercial and non-homesteaded properties might pay more. Government watchdog group Florida Tax Watch also opposes the measure for similar reasons and estimates 76 percent of all property owners in Florida would not benefit from it.
Here is the deal, first on any proposal for taxation, homes, land, business, not just for a political seat you should have to pay taxes or you cannot vote on the measure. If you are on the take, welfare, no jobs or being productive(excluding SS folks, they already paid) you should not be able to vote at all. The liberals have felons, illegals, non citizens and soon to be announced dogs and cats get to vote and that is WRONG!
If I saw this right, Florida voted to restore Felons voting rights as well..... The Country is changing before our eyes.....Here is the deal, first on any proposal for taxation, homes, land, business, not just for a political seat you should have to pay taxes or you cannot vote on the measure.
