What the heck is Ad Valorum tax anyway? Is that latin for "Meaningless Bullshit Tax"? They can only tax you on the purchase of your car once so they just invent some dumbass crap to tax you repetitively on your vehicle.

Ad Valorum taxes are based on evaluations rather than transactions. The evaluation process is determined by various criteria related to the item in a given market.

That and its a nifty way to bend you over and pick your pocket.

Some counties have inspections. Pinellas use to and I'm sure they still do.

They as well dropped it in 2000 because cars now have cat conv and the testing was not finding enough bad exhaust to warrant the cost..

And as for the lottery, all they did was take the money it raises and put it in the coffers, then spend that same amount that was already there in the budget and spend it elsewhere.

We were bamboozled..

Oh , and the main reason Florida has such a low cost of living
is because we have Crappy Schools and roads and such..

And we have tourists.
