Date: August 5th, 2026 10:20 AM Author: Wonderful Cyan Mother It's weird how your priorities change. I remember when my student loan payments were the biggest line item on my budget and the thought of making these payments for 30 years felt like a permanent ball and chain i would carry into old age.
I paid off all the high interest loans and my sub 2% remaining debt totals a monthly payment of ~$300. That's like 3 dinners. I dont even think about it. |

Date: August 5th, 2026 10:27 AM Author: bearded spot headpube Another thing that I have noticed that is similar to this is retired people who don't have jobs. They pretend like they still understand what it is like to get up and have a job to deal with, but they really don't ever think about working. They just think about how lonely and unfulfilled they are. Then they want you to take extra time out of your busy day to babysit and keep them company.

I had something near 6%, and paying it off was the equivalent of 6% risk-free post-tax return. All things considered, the expected value of paying off was similar to investing in the market.
Anyone paying off 3.5% or less is retarded. |

Date: August 5th, 2026 8:13 PM Author: narrow-minded station knife Where Was the Last True Allodial Title?The last time true, widespread allodial titles existed was in Medieval Europe (predominantly across France, Germany, and the Nordic regions) before the gradual expansion of feudalism swallowed independent family lands between the 11th and 14th centuries.Once a king or state declared sovereignty over a territory, all land within those borders technically reverted to the crown or government. The absolute last vestiges of independent allodial territory vanished globally with the drawing of modern international borders in the 19th and 20th centuries, ensuring every square inch of habitable earth fell under a sovereign entity's tax and police powers.

Date: August 5th, 2026 8:13 PM Author: narrow-minded station knife What is the Closest to Allodial Today?Your instinct is correct: Alaska is the closest modern equivalent in the United States, but with a catch. It is not because of an "allodial title" loophole, but rather a lack of local government.The Alaska "Unorganized Borough": Over half of Alaska's landmass sits inside the "Unorganized Borough." Because there is no municipal or county government established in these wild areas, there is no authority to assess or collect property taxes. You can own land here, build what you want, and pay $0.00 a year to the state. However, it is still not allodial; the federal or state government can still seize the land via eminent domain if they choose to build a highway or military base through it.Tribal Trust Lands: Native American reservation land held in trust by the federal government behaves similarly to allodial land. Individual states and counties cannot tax it, nor can they enforce local zoning laws (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5889668&forum_id=2)#50048029) |

The bigger question is why you think taxes motivate someone to maintain a property? Wouldn't taxes, at the margin, encourage the owner to DEVALUE the property rather than the opposite ? |

Date: August 5th, 2026 9:30 PM Author: Indigo heady space scourge upon the earth it is largely indirect, but if the taxes increase (as they normally do) and become unmanageable for the homeowner, then there is the incentive to maintain it for its resale value because Selling could well be a necessity down the line. is it unfair and even sinister? yes, but so are all the core machinations of a society.
