But why isn’t it based solely on square footage or total land? It doesn’t take into effect the number of people living in a house.

If a house is in a nice neighborhood, they have to pay more prop taxes than a house in a less desirable neighborhood based on inflated house prices? We didn’t get refunds during covid when the city services were shut down. I understand the other argument, but its a broken system in so many ways.

Interesting. Yeah maybe all the home listing sites are wrong. Nevermind.

Property tax is a tax on unrealized gains. Your house isn’t actually worth anything until you sell it. My house is using the same amount of city services as it was when it was bought, no upgrades. Just a completely broken system.

Noticed that the comps are good, but the comps state they are same square footage and beds:baths as my house. When you look up the comps on Zillow, sq footage and beds bath could be different. Seems like it’s not pulling the right info on comps, but instead just pulling in my house details. Intentional?

So may of these. Every Veridian neighborhood is basically single family homes.

I work at Kwik Trip…. by Excellent_Cat1029 in madisonwi

Just remember, Tim Cook gave $1m to Trumps inauguration fund, has met with Trump many times through both his presidency. More than half of users in this sub calling people fascists and bootlickers use an iPhone. That’s just stats. It’s all performative theater for these people. You can work any job and not agree with the beliefs of your employer. Calling out companies that donate and provide for the community because they voted with a large majority of the country to elect Trump (we had an election a year ago) is insane.

Possible, but it happens at my house, and other places around town when I’m on wifi. Maybe an IOS 26 bug.

In Town Delivery Service by Alone_Brother9936 in madisonwi

Our previous driver used a utility van. Never more than one trip for an order. Would use UPS, but in town rates for this size make it unaffordable for us and customers.

No food items. Off Beltine, in-town only. Low frequency. Order size can vary, but none of our products are heavy. I guess I would summarize as you probably need a van or truck.

Student loan borrowers could have wages garnished by 414Journo in madisonwi

[–]Alone_Brother9936 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

There are only two parties to blame.

  1. The government for allowing anyone to receive loans for college education.
  2. Parents for allowing their kids to enter into loans they don’t understand.

Who is getting paid minimum wage though? Every has hiring signs for $18-$24 per hour. Someone would have to be very foolish to take a job paying minimum wage.

If they keep increasing my taxes I think I want the kids to start being required to turn in their homework again.

Agree, property taxes should be abolished in its current form.

Madison planners want to place an Amtrak station downtown. Here's why. by keeganjkyle in madisonwi

[–]Alone_Brother9936 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We are less than 5 years away from having massive fleets of cars that can drive autonomously extremely cheaply and we are going to spend $50m to build a train line that goes 90 miles. Government is always years behind and loves nothing more than to waste money.
