Taxation Without Representation
Some of the most convoluted laws in the land are those relating to property boundaries. God help the poor bastards living in the 1/100ths mile of a property line because you can be on one side or the other, depending on the douchebags running your local government.
One woman in Buffalo who had been paying taxes to the city for years was suddenly told she can’t vote, according to the Buffalo News.
And worst of all, she found this out when she showed up to vote in a mayoral primary. Me smells the big ugly fist of political trickery afoot. It smells like cheese.
This person has been paying taxes and fees to her home city for the last 17 years. Who says you can’t get a return on your investment? Oh AIG said that, never mind.
