This is a petition to abolish property (real estate) taxes. Everyone is welcome to sign, and Ohio residents are especially encouraged to sign. Property taxes are the cruelest taxes of all. They have no relationship to the taxpayer\'s ability to pay. They are an anachronism from an agrarian past, when land ownership was a source of farm income and only property owners could vote. Today property owners, especially senior citizens and others on low or fixed incomes, are being taxed out of their homes. Most of the property taxes go the the public (government) schools, which can and should be privatized. (See sepschool.org for information on separating school and state.) The remaining government programs supported by property taxes can either be cut, privatized, or funded by other sources, such as user fees. Please sign the petition to end the tyranny of property taxes.

The current volume of signatures grants us the necessary leverage to begin formal discussions with state legislators. I am currently drafting a briefing document that outlines the economic impact of tax abolition for our upcoming meetings at the statehouse.

No one should be taxed out of a home that they own, because of hard times. They just take, and take from us. Enough is enough! It's MY home, I shouldn't lose it, ever!

My property taxes go up every single year while my social security check stays the same. How am I supposed to keep my house like this?

ABOLISH THE TAXES NOW. Sick of paying rent to the government on land I bought and paid for fair and square in 1994.

The school tax part is way too high. We dont even have kids in school anymore and still have to pay thousands. It has to stop.

Because I believe as a senior who has no children in the school system they should not have to pay school taxes. They need to keep up on their senses and even if people live in apartments they should be sent a tax Bill for the children that they have in the school systems
