Is this the type of waste and fraud that "some" people are always complaining about in all forms of Government ? So maybe, just maybe, waste and fraud isn't strictly just in the Welfare systems of America ? Maybe Welfare Queens aren't really the problem ? lol

But hey, I'm sure, absolutely sure, when all of these rich people who are "unknowingly" beggaring their neighbors find out that their accountants are using these dubious tax breaks, they'll voluntarily quit claiming them, them being such Great American Patriots. They'll probably come to this conclusion when they're sitting in Church on Sunday, rapt focus on the preachers sermon about do unto others as you would have done unto you,lol #sarcasm

( of course Trump is using the tax break, he is a well known goat herder,lol. But
I am not singling him out, this tax break is a gift to the elite of every political
persuasion, I'm sure. And I'd be willing to bet that BS tax breaks like this are
running rampant in the tax code of Fed, State, and Local. We working stiffs are getting
played, lol )

"six-decade-old tax break intended to help struggling farmers in the Garden State has long been a target of critics who say it's been co-opted by wealthy suburban landowners. Now, there's a push to tighten its loopholes."

"Curtis, a former high school principal in Roxbury, seethes over the imbalances in town. While he pays more than $9,600 in annual property taxes on the undeveloped portion of his 2½-acre lot, some of his neighbors pay only a few hundred dollars on significant portions of their multi-acre estates thanks to farm assessments."

"No one is doing me a favor while I pay $4,683.32 per acre in tax, while these 155 entitled folks are paying $6.88 per acre," he said.

"What they are actually doing is transferring their tax bill to the 2,126 non-assessed property owners in town," Curtis added, citing data from 2021. "It has to be understood: This is a tax transfer, not a tax break."
