Re-evaluation has no impact on cars or the personal property taxes that business must pay, it only applies to real estate, so if you raise the mill rate, those 2 groups get hit exceptionally hard by the higher tax rate.
ReplyDeleteMr. Blumenthal...NEED VS. WANT VS GREED...
ReplyDeleteThose elected officials collecting pensions range from some of the poorest in Congress to Senator Richard Blumenthal, whom the Center for Responsive Politics ranked as the third-wealthiest Senator in 2011. (His net worth was between $79.6 million and $120.8 million.)
That didn’t prevent Attorney Blumenthal from cashing his annual $47,000 State CT Pension, even as the State of Connecticut’s depleted pension fund has struggled. A 2012 study by the Pew Center on the States said the state had barely half the money it needed to pay its long-term retirement obligations, the third-worst ratio in the nation.
Attorney Blumenthal bristles when asked about whether his personal wealth and congressional salary allow him to forgo the pension. “The benefits I’m receiving from the state were earned over more than two decades of public service, and they’re two separate entities, two separate governments, and … they’re being paid according to law,” he says. “I’m not going to comment as to any aspect of my financial disclosure. I would just say, I seek to give back through public service and other ways such as the charitable contributions that my wife and I make.”
Folks, Tim O'Brien voted for the largest tax increase in our states ( and nations)history while at the capital as your state rep. Did you really think he could change his tax and spend, spend, spend ways ?
ReplyDeleteTim O'Brien - bad for Ct, and WORSE for New Britain
as I recall, O'Brien voted for tax increases that failed to pass because there were too extreme even for the Democrats in the legislature.
ReplyDeleteTim O'Brien has no life accomplishments to be proud of at all. Now he's running our city into the ground.
ReplyDeleteIt's like an episode of the twilight zone.
And after all his rhetoric about "the poor" - what does he do? Raise taxes on the people who can barely afford their cars.
Great job buddy.
Why should he care how high car taxes go since he doesn't have to pay them.
ReplyDeleteThe forefathers must have known something when they required people to own property in order to qualify to vote. If you have no skin in the game, of course you vote for the party that is going to keep giving you everything totally free and you never have to worry about the consequences because you never paid a dime in taxes in your entire life. just vote for Democrats and keep living totally free off of those who are dumb enough to work for a living.
