![Kicked Off Your Own Land For Camping [1216x1216 - 206KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/99k6MG.jpg){kind=link}
wiki didn't talk about my State.
I spent some time in a blue state, and the property tax was through the roof. The kicker was that, when the state was still owned by a Euro king as a colony, the king's annual property tax on the holder of the colony was non-monetary. So a king demanded zero dollars for a yuge swath of land, but my "representative" government demanded that I pay thousands annually for a tiny speck of it.
If they do allodial title out there, my relatives holding down the fort there would jump on it right quick. Though I doubt that they do as the local government out there makes beaucoup bucks off of property tax.
From the Wiki:
>Most property ownership in common law jurisdictions is fee simple. In the United States, the land is subject to eminent domain by federal, state and local government, and subject to the imposition of taxes by state and/or local governments, and there is thus no true allodial land. Some states within the U.S. (notably, Nevada and Texas) have provisions for considering land allodial under state law, and the term may be used in other circumstances.
If there is a way to pay a lump sum for property taxes today, in exchange for the property being exempt for the rest of eternity, that is something that I would be interested in, even if this would not be true "allodial land".
You and every other landowner caught in the yoke would jump at it. You think they're just going to let you out?
