Defining the Problem Comment by Fischer, Kahlib: One paragraph.
People often commit crimes and while only Christ can save people, the law made by the government can at least guide people into doing what is deemed right by society. While only Christ removes evil, policies introduced by the government can promote control. The H.R.614 - Protect Our Schools from Tax Delinquents Act of 2017 is a bill that aims to reduce tax delinquency in owners of property that rent to Section 8 voucher holders. The bill is aimed at reducing the possibility of property owners not paying their taxes in a timely manner and having the paid taxes used to cover the cost of schools (cover taxes) (Congress, 2017).
May: Biblical guidelines and principles
The Two main principles to discuss here is ‘Man is Sin’ and ‘Jesus Christ is the only means of ultimate salvation’. Government interventions like the bill proposed will only have limited success due to the irrationality of political leaders and citizens. The only person that can save humanity from evil is Jesus Christ. But, even with the limited success, it can still help reinforce the need for property owners to pay their taxes accordingly (Kraft & Furlong, 2017).

Moore, 178 U.S. 41 was a Supreme Court Case that helped define the meaning of ‘direct taxes’ providing the foundation from which to create things like general property tax that would be reworked in the early 20th century (Famguardian, 2017).

But some cities like Oakland Park say they have planned ahead for the cuts (Wyman, Hafenbrack & Kleindienst, 2007). Regardless, the loss of revenue will include firing many employees, like the 1,000 Miami-Dade County employees who already learned the county was eliminating their jobs to provide property tax relief in 2007-2008. Countywide, if the new reforms are passed, 1,200 positions will be eliminated in Miami-Dade. Only 375 of them

Property and life insurance are complex issues with details that are relevant to any policy holder and invaluable for all policy holders to look into. There comes a point in time when it is important for a person to buy life, or property insurance. This is particularly so for a single parent who wants to care for her children in the eventuality of her death or for a business owner
Income Tax Deduction Taxes have existed in the United States for all of its existence but they took on many forms prior to the modern income tax. The income tax was not finalized and permanently ensconced in the United States law until the 1910's.
