It is unfathomable to believe that our founding Fathers fought the British over this very thing. They fought and died so that we would be a self governing people. A people who would not bear the burden of taxation without representation. But it it is still happening today!
Within the State of Florida there are several boards that are made up of non-elected officials who have the power and authority to levy taxes against Floridians.
It appears these "special boards" reside within "special tax districts". Their purpose is to govern and oversee special projects or community efforts that range from healthcare, education, and other forms of public service funding. They, in essence, decide who gets what and how much. They also can develop special tax levy's upon citizens within their districts and then use the funds from these taxes at their discretion. Building micro-empires for their cause.
These boards are made up of individuals that seem to always be in a related field or closely tied to the funds purpose. To us at FGR, that is like letting Bernie Madoff be an SEC auditor.
What do you think? That is what we want to know.
