You've got to be kidding...exemptions aren't easy to get nor easy to
maintain without a lot of work and money. That the rich folk happen to
have the land AND the money to maintain the exemptions is your
problem. We, all of us, get something out of those exemptions...even
if it is a cheaper burger at McDonalds.

How did you find your way back in this newsgroup anyway? Go back and
bug the .general newsgroups...us gardeners have plenty of bugs anyway
and we prefer our weed torches to be the main "flames" of the day!

Slinky you slobbered and sobbed on
:

and I have other friends who
lease out their pasturage to maintain their ag exemptions.

NOW you hit the nail on the head.

I don't think people realize the billions of dollars in tax money
stolen by
the filthy rich by putting a few cows or ducks on their property
(like Dan
Rather) and then paying no taxes on the land hardly at all, while
the rest of
us pay full taxes.
They can even declare agri land in the middle of a city and pay no
school
taxes!!!!

Then, don't get me started on Conservation Easments...
