Rich apologist cheerleaders who dismiss criticism of said rich that abuse the system, usually pass the blame on the system itself; Well, the system is screwed up!!
Now, we have this turd trying to manipulate said system; Well, he has every right to!!
Which is it ladies? Do we need reform on our tax system, or not? Make up your minds.
So, those that are against this guy, are you saying people shouldn't be able to protest their taxes if they make over a certain amount? I don't see an issue. Anyone can protest their taxes, it doesn't mean they will lower them. There isn't a story here.
Yeah, once again it's that whole wacky first amendment thing you progressives have trouble with when a rich person is involved. Now it's the "petition the Government for a redress of grievances" part you think shouldn't be available to the 1%ers, along with the "free speech" part of campaign contributions you already think should be thrown out. Plus we already know you think the 2nd Amendment is wrong (albeit for everyone not just the wealthy), so tell me exactly what parts of the Bill of Rights should the rich be allowed to use?
What are you, the house *slave* for the upper crust? You are always carrying their water. I have never seen you post anything in favor of the middle class.

Yeah, fancy me sticking up for equal rights for all including the rich and not being like you and saying the rich should just voluntarily surrender theirs. Don't you realize that if we start allowing the rights of the evil rich to be curtailed, the middle class will inevitably follow? Or are you so remarkably naive to think there's some sort of dial which we can use to make superfine adjustments so the pain only hits the people making above some desired income level?
So funny coming from the guy claims he already has a million in his 401K.
Dude the middle class has already given up control of the government. The government is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the wealthy. The "rights" of the middle class were given to the uber-wealthy years ago. You are now standing against the middle class as we attempt to take back some of the power that was taken from us.
That's fine if you feel that way. All I'm asking for is you to specify which citizens rights the rich shouldn't be able to exercise and at what income they start to be phased out. Obviously you think guy in OP has lost his right to contest his real estate tax assessment, which other rights do you think he should likewise no longer be able to avail himself of? You know, in the name of "taking back some of the power".
It is hard to say what the property is worth. It look like a nice place that is about 45 min on water from small towns. However, I'm inclined to say that the owner is a bit of a douche for trying to claim that his property is 1/4 of what the assessment.

Do you have any other examples of selective granting of first amendment rights that would suit your utopia? List them all, I know that I for one would absolutely love to hear them.First, anybody who has net assets over 100 million should be cut off from all contact with politicians. No donations allowed to ANYTHING political, no face-to-face meet and greets with politicians, no funding of think tanks, etc....
You completely misinterpret, this is anger about a rich person being more equal/privileged then the rest of us. Let him pay the same tax rate as his fellow tax payers.

Dunno about that but I believe incomes over 10 million/year should be taxed at a 90% rate and that the inheritance tax for assets over 100 million should be around 75%. We need a return to the tax policies of the 1960s, that would solve MANY economic/societal issues that plague America.
I get that you support oligarchial governments and enjoy living under them, I am a whole lot less enthusiastic than yourself. I am sick of the rich @#$$ing me in the @## and @%##ing in my mouth.
You're a bag of emotion that is incapable of thinking in a coherent fashion. There is virtually zero logic to your thought processes. When faced with the lack of logic associated with your thinking, you divert off into a tangent with a miniscule amount of relevance in an attempt to save face. So you know, your face...it ain't saved with me. I've been on to you for a long, long time and am virtually certain that I am not the only one. You profess to be an adult. If so, it's way past time to cease thinking like a young teenager.Dunno about that but I believe incomes over 10 million/year should be taxed at a 90% rate and that the inheritance tax for assets over 100 million should be around 75%.

He will. What's in question is whether he will be paying that rate on the correct valuation. He is exercising his right to appeal that valuation. Oh, and BTW, assuming the process in Montana is the same as in Michigan, the review board that he is appealing to will be meeting whether he appeals his assessment or not. They will be meeting because other residents of the county will be exercising their right to appeal their assessments. And the burden of proof is on him. The review board will give him a thumbs up or a thumbs down. They don't have to prove their valuation is correct, he has to prove that it is wrong.Let him pay the same tax rate as his fellow tax payers.
