A new idea recently submitted at IdeaRaisers in the Panhandle this week involves the redistribution of ad valorem taxes. Also known as "real estate" or "property" taxes, ad valorem taxes are paid on every bit of real estate in the state. Many people feel the distribution of this tax is unfair towards rural areas. Some think that we should do away with this form of tax. What do you think?

Ad valorem taxes are critical for our schools. It would be insane to do away with property taxes.
It needs to be reformed without hurting schools. But farmers and landowners pay far too much of the tax burden as it is.
I just wish they would do away with the Personal Business Property Tax.
I think the real estate tax is fine, though. We need it for the schools.
