Spin Launch goes around in circles with Ka'u

I pretty much agree with Kalakoa, however the following quote raised my hackles: "elder resident homeowners -- their retirement benefits aren't taxed, and their property taxes aren't going up, so failure to expand the tax base doesn't really cost them anything extra."
Every time I get a tax bill, the taxable value has increased. Therefore my taxes DO GO UP. Pity to spoil a good argument for a lack of simple research. (And don't get me started on the "road repair/maintenance" extortion in HPP).
