To the citizens of the public school district:
In these times where the economic trend is moving towards a collapse, from the indicators I see -
1. A steady decline in the purchasing power of the dollar.
2. A steady increase in energy prices.
3. An steady increase in food prices.
4. Of food shortages of wheat and rice and other foods we have long taken for granted.
5. A steady decline in property values and real estate.
6. To the ongoing stress of an unending war with no clear objective and its immense financial and psychological burden upon the American public.
To name just a few ...
I will pose these hard questions to the taxpaying homeowner , not home owners who under contractual obligation to the bank in the form of a mortgage as this too must be considered, but actual homeowners who have satisfied their debt to the banks and own their property Free and Clear.
1. When and If the economy collapses or becomes to the point of financial duress and you can no longer pay the already burdensome property tax , will your government put a lien on your house and seize your property?
2. With the steady decline in property values, will the tax assessments be a proportionate commensuration of this decline?
3. What if one can no longer pay the burdensome property tax?
I’ve talked to home owners and business owners and they are claiming economic duress already and are extremely worried about their future as I am extremely worried about my family, friends, neighbor's and theirs and their children's futures. Without them, we have no future. People need to start asking these questions and all peripheral thereof, and demand answers holding their public servants accountable before we have an economic catastrophe, unprecedented.

In today's Record an artice on the current real estate market in Orange County revealed that the median sales price of single family home in April 2008 was exactly the same as for April 2007. What steady decline in values are you referring to? If I had the time, I could probably contradict your other statements with facts, also.

ha ha ha, yes the sales price was the same and nothing sold back then either. I think the decline is in the value of my dollar. While you are checking your facts, check on how much advertising revenue the THR gets from the local realtors...
