alt Hacker NewsWho benefits most of a city being improved by tax dollar spending? Property owners. They benefit in the range of hundreds of thousands of dollars to millions of dollars each. Thus it makes sense they contribute the most tax dollars.
Or show me a worker who benefits the same amount of money from the city being improved.
It depends on how the $ is spent. If it's spent on "free preschool" then it benefits parents who use the free preschool. These are by definition not the people paying this non-resident-only tax.
