"I dare you to hit my car"

No it doesn't.

If the landlord does or doesn't pay for the property tax, you can neither pay it for them, nor will the county ask you to pay it.

You'll be evicted when the property is foreclosed, or you'll lease from someone else who buys it from the owner.

 

Venezuela has a corrupt government that is robbing its country blind. It’s a poor representation of socialism. America already offers tons of social programs with handouts. You act as if we have none and this would be some great unprecedented change.

 

Your post represents a lack of understanding of my post. Read what I replied to. Then read my again. Now try again.

 

You've been wrong since your first post.

Property tax is paid by the owner of the property with or without a renter.

You might like to pretend that a portion of your rent goes to the property tax, but the truth is you have no control over how that money is spent.

I could, for example, take a renter's check and use it for the down payment on a car. Do you see that as paying for my car?

 

It's the only representation of socialism that has ever existed.

Yes. That's why America is going broke.

 

Your first statement is factually false.

It has nothing to do with our over blown defense budget?

Still not addressing the post. Try again.

 

Because the net result of their rent goes to taxes does not make them a property tax payer. They have no financial liability if those taxes are not paid.

If the landlord uses a portion of their rent money to buy and distribute drugs, does that intern make the tenants drug dealers?

 

Uh no. Did you read what you linked?

There has never been a successful implementation of socialism in a country that led to prosperity.

And no, the Nordic countries are not socialist.

Go ahead and give me your best example of a socialist country in history where socialism succeeded.

67% of the US budget goes towards hand out benefits.

15% of the US budget is defense including international aid

 

Oh but I did address it.

Renters do not pay property tax. Period T.

 

I'm not referring to sales tax. Sales tax is a whole different animal.

Your example of a renter actually paying the landlord's real estate taxes doesn't work - anyone who pays for anything, that includes the overhead (just as it is with any payment made) is likely inclusive of that particular tax. That does not make the person who is paying rent, or for a burger, paying the real estate taxes.

 

Why would those paying funds to a thought to be reputable business be responsible for what the business does with those funds?

 

If you still consider a renter paying real estate taxes, then they are also responsible if someone else doesn't right the check, correct?

If the owner of a deli includes overhead in the price of a ham and swiss on rye, does that mean you are paying his real estate taxes? Nope.

 

A prime example of how a tenant does not pay property taxes is that if if a investment property escrow payment increases due to property tax increase, legally the landlord (unless it's written into the lease which I've never seen) cannot raise the tenants lease until the term on their lease has expired and only then can the landlord can renegotiated their rates.

 

Did you read what you typed in the post I replied to? I’m seeing a trend of you blurting out nonsense then attacking the words that respond. Done with you for the day.

 

I guess her rent is paid for by whoever gives her a check.

 

I'm seeing a trend of you not being able to debate the issue, insulting me, and running away.

I'm used to that from the left, it's ok.

 

You've made my point. Thanks! You agree that renters are not property tax payers as they also would not be considered drug dealers as well as they have no control of what happens to those dollars after they give them to the landlord..

 

The absurdity of their premise is rather startling...

 

It's a common thread for those who think stuff should be free for them, like when she/he indicated that birth control should be more available...and when pressed...admitted it should be "free".

They like to think they're paying for someone else's house that they're renting as if they're really the ones in control of the property. I.E the homeowner would be lost if not for the renter.
