So...as my profile states, I bought my first home in the city...mainly because I want to make a difference in the city I love...BUT THIS IS RIDICOULOUS!!!

This year's tax accessment actually stated I my houses value increased $1500 last year!!!

BUT...I had an appraisal done in October...I lost $40,000 in equity!!

I tried to appeal to the city, and made all 3 of my appointments (which of course meant I used my vacation time)...However, they just said "NOPE!".

So, I am on to argue with the state about this mess.

But I still think they need the extra $$$ to help pay for all their friends mediocre work for the city....along with the numerous lawsuits we have had to pay for!

They all said only a fool would pay the taxes in Detroit...I may be a fool, and I may be an angry fool...BUT I am in the same boat as many...so hopefully if/when the opportunity comes to help the city government...they will take my help!

HUM...Heard Ken Cockrel is looking for some new help!

Oh they care not what your house will sell for they say it's gone up so it has...bow down and take it. Taxation is a means to control. Just think about how much we pay in taxes, Gas taxes, phone taxes, sales tax, energy taxes, a totally unconstitutional unappropriated tax on our income. Drivers responsibility tax, licenses, plates and certificates which are in reality another tax and now our Governess is on the Hill pushing for a global carbon tax...A tax on frickin' Plant food carbon dioxide was ten times higher during the Iron age, Global warming is just another lie to tax us more, just like 9-11 and the Undeclared Iraq action.
We are now in the grips of a government that our founders looked to escape.
