I agree, alot of them probably have had these properties for a long time and see renovation as an expense that they can not afford. The older we get the more conservative we get with our money.

Thats how my dad is now. He finds it hard to put any money into renovating and only does what he needs to. If you figur what these people are living on these days and subtract their daily living expenses and medical you wonder how they can even afford to apy their taxes. I know there are programs out there but they don't give you that much of a break. My mother in law always gets tax rebates but even with her income being $750 a month (I use to do her rebate forms) she was only entitled to 70% of what she paid. Some would say thats a good deal but when you really think about how much the cost of living is and how they usually have to pay someone even for the smallest of repairs it adds up quickly. I think after a certain age property tax should become obsolete for the elderly.

OMG, they would have us working folks paying more and more, somebody has got to pay for all of those who chose not to work, we have done it for years and until they revamp the system so that people get off their rear ends and do their part in society, the elderly will continue to pay also.

How about this suggestion: If you have worked all your life and they took 29% of your pay check and you were still expected to pay for your own food, your own housing and etc, then you get to live tax free in your retirement. I am really tired of government hand outs and the abuse of my tax dollars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are never eligible for anything, because we choose to get up everyday and go to work.

Not to make your day worse but it is actually 29.5 percent. AND yes the extra .5 counts. I know though where you are coming from. I still haven't figured out whre I am coming up with almost a grand for taxes and fuel money. Since this job and accident thing I am in financial distress. Last year it wasn't a problem. I lose sleep EVERY night wondering if this is gonna be another long cold winter. I am tired of having to make choices when I need everything on the list.
What really irritates me is when I hear someone say "at least you guys make that kind of money". What kind of money is that? I am no better off then the people getting the freebies cause I actually have to pay for food, school lunches, fuel, mortgage and taxes. Oh and lets not forget the high priced gas to get to work so they can have money for their FREE programs.
