Why won't the federal government make a law exempting their combat veterans from paying property taxes?

Doing so would allow more veterans to own a home of their own!

Honorably dischaged veterans who have made it out of combat, broken but alive, deserve a complete exemption from property taxes period. Why Does Big Oil Get Complete Exemptions from Property Taxes In Any State They Choose To Set Up Shop In? Because The Dam Corportions Own Our Government .

Because civilians who haven't served are basically cowards and low lifes, there's no push to force the government to make changes to law that give veterans real benifits. Haha, just look at the dirt bags who have answered your question so far. If the government can make it law to stop analog TV and turn it digital, then with the stroke of a pen they could exempt all veterans from property taxes.

Well first if you own property you should pay those taxes, according to the govt..

In my opinion, the real question that should be asked, is, why if you dont have children and own a home should you pay school taxes?

I think every person who has children in apartments or card board boxes should have to pay school taxes, not just home owners.

As far as big oil, they should have to pay the most taxes.

When you going to learn, your government was and never will actually work for you or any one else who isnt rich as fudge?

In many states such as Califirnia vets do ge reduced property taxes.

The NUMBER ONE reason the federal government does not do that is is: THEY have no authority over property taxes. That is all up to the states.

Oil companies are not exempt from property taxes.

You seem to lack any knowledge o the subject matter you are asking about.

Why should the (local) governments exempt combat veterans from paying property taxes? Maybe, everybody who experiences tremendous stress should be exempt from paying property taxes, and sales taxes, and income taxes, and, and, and, ........?

Can you imagine -- every veteran who was ever in combat being exempt from property taxes..... one has nothing to do with the other .....it wouldn't make any sense.

The Federal Government has nothing to do with Property Taxes. Property taxes is determined by state and county governments. Personally, I disagreed with you. Everybody should pay their property taxes regardless of their status.

Because property taxes are paid at a local level. The Federal Government has no jurisdiction on what state and local municipalities charge for taxes.

Well, among other things, they can't since property taxes are local, not federal.

Your "facts" are incorrect. A more doable solution would be to expand the available of low-interest VA loans.
