“I’m at the breaking point,” said Gretchen Gardner, an Austin artist who bought a 1930s bungalow in the Bouldin neighborhood just south of downtown in 1991 and has watched her property tax bill soar to $8,500 this year.
“It’s not because I don’t like paying taxes,” said Gardner, who attended both meetings. “I have voted for every park, every library, all the school improvements, for light rail, for anything that will make this city better. But now I can’t afford to live here anymore. I’ll protest my appraisal notice, but that’s not enough. Someone needs to step in and address the big picture.”
The stupidity and ignorance on display with this woman is simply mind-boggling. She votes for things that require tax dollars, and then complains when she gets taxed to pay for the things she voted for.
This woman is literally being hit in the face with the consequences of her own actions and she CANNOT. UNDERSTAND. WHAT. IS. HAPPENING.
This is an Obama voter, folks. This is the disease that is eating American from the inside out. This level of stupidity can't be cured by an outside force. This is the cancer that produces symptoms like Obama and his administration. This person literally cannot understand the concept of cause and effect.
And when she sells her house, she'll move to a new location, where the cycle will repeat itself all over again, because a liberal cannot learn from their mistakes. If they could learn from their mistakes, they wouldn't be liberal.
I think that people who voted in favor of those higher taxes ought to be responsible for paying them for the next twenty years, or until they are reduced, whichever comes first.
