How Government Destroyed This Man's Life for $134 in Property Taxes

Article

"Movers carted out his easy chair, his clothes, his television. Next came the things that were closest to his heart: his Marine Corps medals and photographs of his dead wife, Martha. The duplex in Northeast Washington that Coleman bought with cash two decades earlier was emptied and shuttered. By sundown, he had nowhere to go."

"All because he didn't pay a $134 property tax bill."

Nobody owns their house, even if it's paid for. The government owns it. You must pay them if you want to keep it. If you don't, they will send men with guns to take it away from you. Does this sound civilized? Do you call this civilization?
