Ordinance Tax farming

[Speaker to Animals]

Fire.

[Fife]

I wonder whether this is a symptom of a larger problem of local governments desperately finding ways to maintain their tax base.

I don't think this precise sort of abuse is all that wide spread just yet. This seems to me like a slick firm putting a high pressure move on lo-info small city governments run by little Napoleons.

IOW, rent seeking creeps looking for dipshits to exploit.

Can you see it that way? Because to me it seems like some marginal operators looking for an angle on the more normie state racket, e.g., speed traps and red-light cameras.

We're getting closer to the time for due process' last stand.

That is the way I look at it. Are people actually paying these things? I know if you don't pay the fines they can suspend your license and other crap but these charges don't seem to have any force behind them.

No dude, it looks like in Cali that these fuckers have the power to slap a tax lien on your country ass and roll your freehold through the next county auction.

That's not a fine, that's BTFO.

Yeah that is violent overthrow worthy.

[Speaker to Animals]

I would burn the property to the fucking ground.

I would burn the property to the fucking ground.

Well in that event you wouldn't be homeless at least.

The statist freaks would be happy to provide you with 3 (sort of) Hots and a Cot for the rest of your useful life in exchange for your arson against the peoples' newly-acquired real estate.

Slightly related, Story in NYTimes about suspending any govt permits like drivers or professional licenses due to being behind on student loans, thus putting people out of work. Just to make sure they'll NEVER be able to pay it back, or feed their families. Lovely how the bankers, who used to have to use good judgement about who to loan to, now can simply get the govt thugs to do their dirty work. Debtors prison, like said upthread.

I'm not a gun guy, but line up the bankers and lawyers for me and I'll figure it out.
