I come from Massachusetts. Even in that tax crazy state, we implemented a proposition limiting the growth in property taxes to no more than 2.5% per year. And over-rides have to be approved by the voters. Over-rides never pass!!!
Point is: No enterprise, governmental or private, should be able to dig into your pocket at will. There must be some balance.
Otherwise, what will prevent Pima County or Oro Valley, if heaven forbid, the town gets a property tax, from expanding their spending at will? What will encourange them to be fiscally responsible? Nothing.
