The tax rate would be much simpler to understand. There would not be the crazy system that is currently employed in Sumter county where neighbors are assessed differently. I would also make sure to raise the rates on those outside the Villages so they are more in line with those in The Villages.

I would also make the school system show that the tax payer is receiving an appropriate rate of return on their investment of approximately $19,000 per student.
