Leonard Gilbert and I were pleased to represent the Lake County Liberty Coalition and Ohio Political News at the rally in Columbus on November 20th.
We joined patriots from all over Ohio to let our State legislators know that they must give homeowners relief from the oppressive property taxes.
We would like to give a big shout out to Sarah Wolf of Hamilton County for doing a great job of organizing the rally. We will continue to work with Sarah by educating the citizens of Ohio on our immoral property taxes.
Here are three videos we created to memorialize the event:
Here are the words to the great song parody created by Sarah Wolf:
Bye-Bye, house! Bye-Bye, happiness! Hello Homelessness!
I feel like I could cry, Bye-Bye my house, bye-bye!
We clean our gutters, we mow our lawns,
We work our butts off, to keep the lights on….
But now the Counties have taxed us to death
The American Dream gasps, for its last breath
Bye-bye house! Bye-bye happiness! Hello, homelessness!
I feel like I could cry. Bye-bye my house, bye-bye!
We are not parcels, or the County’s cash cow
They answer to us, not the other way round
We bought the houses, we could afford
We are not serfs and, They’re not our Lords!
Bye-bye house! Bye-bye happiness! Hello, homelessness!
I feel like I could cry. Bye-bye my house, bye-bye!
Don’t want assistance, don’t want relief
We just want fairness, and no more grief
If you don’t change things, and fix this mess
Well, revolutions, WERE FOUGHT OVER LESS!
Bye-bye house! Bye-bye happiness! Hello, homelessness!
I feel like I could cry. Bye-bye my house, bye-bye!
Note to all State Senators, Representatives:
This article from Signal Cleveland is very disturbing. We will be following VERY CLOSELY the votes, and actions taken by EVERY ELECTED STATE OFFICIAL on the property tax issue.
You will be judged by your fruits, and not your words. You will be exposed if you are not working in the best interests of the average citizens. You are to represent us and not the donor class.
Do not think that we will go quietly into the night.
President-elect Donald Trump states that they will eliminate the federal Department of Education, and place public education solely in the hands of the individual States. A complete revamping of the property taxes, including complete elimination, is in order. However, in the short-term we need immediate relief from the over-burdensome property taxes.
For any Ohio group or citizens that what to join our efforts, please send your contact information to Stoppropertytaxes@gmail.com. Leonard and I will gladly travel to any county in Ohio to educate citizens on property taxes.
ANY TAX THAT CAN CAUSE A CITIZEN TO BECOME HOMELESS IS IMMORAL!
NOTE TO ALL OHIO TAXPAYERS:
You are sending the wrong signal to the State legislators by voting for almost every property tax levy. We are asking that you vote NO on all future levies until our State legislators do the job and revamp the entire Ohio property tax system. It is far too complex, and costly to administer!
