the increases are in my opinion introduced smart, now raising sometimes seems small because the depreciation is highly contributory to the current rate. If house prices rise, the real blow.

Yes and the communities still need a lot more money. If the access to 100,000 asylum seekers (can be much more) that ultimately all a home and need a benefit for decades. History has shown that the majority never comes from the distribution situation, unlike in the Federal Republic. But they are forcing through low benefits and high standards.

Governments have a hole in their hands. They are structurally too much (= fiscal deficit). Very strange that we find that normal. Try for yourself structurally to buy more than you have. The citizen in all areas screwed and paid Ms. Pop playing with other people’s money managers. That always goes wrong, everyone knows already beforehand. Anyway, I’m too lazy and naive and let me also piepelen.

Scandalous! This has now been going on for years. And then hypocrisy they have allegedly withheld. It is every year more than inflation. I already pay 1430 euros now to municipal taxes. What are they doing with all that money? fun things for people and left many officials with fat salaries? And then the government wants to allocate a piece of taxation to gemeentes.Vooral left in municipalities (large) is a disaster and one great leveling.

There is a convention against double taxation. That says you have to pay a double tax. On the other hand, the property tax is not an income enj would actually have to get rid of taxable income. And third, why only homeowners, in the ’80s you had a part owner and residents share. That is fair and the amount is still down, too.
