We have the same type of system in New Hampshire, U.S. We don't have income or sales taxes, so people are taxed up the wazoo on their property. Homes, land, cars, boats, RVs, snowmobiles, ATVs. It doesn't pay to own anything nice anymore.
GST was supposed to replace income tax.. but now they get both 馃え@SW-User

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout That's always happened in the past with other states. New Hampshire's state motto is "Live Free Or Die." Lol. People will never vote for an income or sales tax. So, they've overburdened property owners.

NSW is a cunt of a state these days. Glad I don鈥檛 live there, even when I lived in Sydney 15 years ago it sucked.

@SW-User I dont have enough of a grasp of NSW politics to comment on yours. But our state govt is winning a lot of friends getting rid of railway crossings all over.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Yes.. That was a "courageous" decision.

What does your $945 buy you exactly ?
whowasthatmaskedman70-79, M
@Picklebobble2 It is.. It varies, from state to state. Ours id about $100 cheaper.. And cheaper again with a senior citizens discount.
It鈥檚 a shake down.. they sold us off to any foreign investor with a cheque book. So most the revenue comes from tax.. tax tax tax.
I understand the need for somethings. But they鈥檙e price gouged massively without scrutiny @whowasthatmaskedman

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Of course its a shakedown. This is the government. The options are, move someplace else and get shaken down by someone else, or arrange your affairs as best you can to position yourself to take advantage of the system. I went with Plan B.

Registration is bullshit to begin with. Should be a one time thing. It's not like license plates don't already take caregiver anyway
