I'm going to assume that your referring to my responses to this thread. I was not nor am I angry now about this subject, although you seem to be in some sort of emotional distress regarding the taxes that you pay. I was trying to stress the unfairness of being allowed vote to based on paying taxes vs residency. Vacation property owners like you are your own worst enemy. You buy lakefront property, see your property taxes go up, then start to complain about how much and subsequently how it's spent. Well, I've got news for you: As long as the demand for vacation property in the lakes region out paces the supply (and there's only so much lake frontage), your property value and hence property tax has nowhere to go but up. It's a cycle that's been repeated for several decades now, and will continue.
And I can quote Nicholson too:
"Sell crazy someplace else, we're all stocked up here"
