Regardless, state and county stuff are such a fucking nuisance and seemingly unfuckeitable unless you know someone or are a prominent (wealthy) fixture in the community (local political sphere).

My girlfriend traded her car in to a major dealership for a newer version of her old car but the person at the dmv failed to remove the old vehicle from her profile when she got it registered and paid the sales tax(which is a super trash law in arkansas). So she owed property taxes for both cars at the end of the year even though she no longer owned the other car, and had proof which their system could access via vin numbers which would show dealership trade/ current ownership!

Why are there even property taxes on a car? It’s not an asset. Why don’t they just charge property taxes on tires then? I’m sure they could grift off of some kids tire swing that way..

It’s a way of extending property taxes to ppl who only rent or are to poor to own a home.
