One way or another everyone is going to pay what they are paying now if not more. If Florida chooses to tax businesses heavily some will leave and others will raise the cost of their goods or services, county gas and home utilities will have higher taxes, investment properties will continue to pay property taxes so tenants will be getting paying more than homeowners as part of their rent is for the owners property taxes. Either services will be cut drastically or there will be a lot of taxation and or assessments going on. I would vote not to eliminate property taxes however I would like to see a limit on the amount that can be charged going forward.
