I)o you think you own your property ? Just stop paying your PROPERTY TAX and you wi11 s®e who the true owner is. You are ~aerely renting it and if you don't or can't pay your rent (Property Tax) you are evicted. Now the CEO of this very large "County Goverramesat" Corpor~t,ioxa (Our Mayor) states he must raise your rent (Frog®rty flax) to~;,a~~ep from cutting services and t® continue to ®xpand thi~-)Isi~d's Goverxa8gent . Making it a "Gov~rraata~±nt ®f MORE" . For efts':' x.11 -bre , .
