The really irritating part about the property taxes is...
Once a year it's a school tax used to publically brainwash the youth.
Once a year it's a tax to fund the local government.
Both Levied solely on land owners.
Where I originally lived in Kentucky, everyone who owns an automobile pays a property tax on it to fund the schools. That way renters pay a share too. If you wanted to get out of paying the tax, you drove an old jalopy that wasn't worth much.

Pennsylvania is still a bit bass ackwards.
