you clearly do not understand the difference between a tax on income and a tax on property

Whatever

All taxes go in one big slush fund. There is no distinction between sales tax, income tax, property tax or toll roads. The way taxation works is that governments need to tax you at the maximum amount possible without triggering a revolution. The way they do that is they chop up taxes into tiny little packages, package them up and label them things like property tax, sales tax, income tax, property tax, whatever.

However, your property tax NEVER EVER makes it into a bank account called YOUR DISTRICTS SCHOOL FUND. It all gets placed into a slush fund and appropriated according to the lies your government tells you and tells them selves.

If you are receiving ANY social security of any sort, you are paying through all of your direct taxes right now via deposit into a slush fund and redistributed out to the various agencies as appropriate.

The only caveat is that there are many many slush funds so it looks like things are allocated properly but they never are.

Look, fine, we all know that lots of money is wasted, I can agree with you on that

BUT

I am not arguing on where money go after it is collected

I am arguing that taxes should be on income ONLY

  • not on items being sold
  • not on property value

There should never be a tax on labor based income. You are literally stealing someone's time.

We agree on that point, for sure.
