HJR 45, Tax reform

Submitted by geonomist on April 16, 2007 - 4:51pm
Down in Salem this session, our reps are trying to correct some of the damage done by land speculators (yet who _doesn't_ hope the land under their home goes up when they're selling? but here I mean the _professional_ speculators). The House Revenue Committee is pushing HJR 45, which would partially lift the lid on the property tax, which had been capped by previous voter initiatives (#5 and #50). If society could recover and share some of the values it creates, which mainly attach to land, then we'd be doing real "geonomics".
