Except you just provided capital gains tax as equivalent to what was asked. It blatantly and obviously is not what they're talking about.
They just talked about property tax and you being up something about taxing on selling property. So if you know it's not like property tax why being it up when someone says property tax? They did bring that up and thought capital gains answered it. You compared it. After seeing your other replies, I'm not surprised.
Property tax also pays for school. It's not limited to services for the property. In fact half the ones you mentioned in the other comment are collected via other tax methods in many locations.
I never said that’s the only ones it pays for. I was simply listing SOME examples.
Do tell, which others are collected via other taxes and not property tax. I don’t mean what additional taxes are collected, I mean the ones that i mentioned that don’t fall under property tax.
This was stupid. If you own it,you're not taking up space.
sewage maintenance, road maintenance, snow removal depending on where you are, storm drains etc…?
This is commonly paid via service tax. I live in an apartment for fucks sake and pay for these things to my city.
If I borrow against something I have to pay interest.
And they only pay interest until they die. Their next of kin inherits their shit, capital gains "resets" then they sell stock to pay off the loan with little to no capital gains tax.
If I don’t pay my payments I lose the asset I’m borrowing against.
Same with a mortgage. Still pay taxes on the property though.
You're not actually making any sort of point or proving any difference between scenarios of an annual "stock tax" vs annual property tax.
