The Law of Diminishing Tax Returns

During a search today, I came across this affadavit executed by an out-of-state owner who felt that an inordinately large tax assessment was tantamount to a taking of his property without just compensation. As I lean toward libertarianism, this cheered me - I was impressed at his efforts to fight the beast Leviathan.

Then I saw how he acquired the property:



That, if you're not familiar, is a Deed the Michigan Department of Natural Resources uses to convey property taken for non-payment of taxes. This property was purchased from the State for thirty dollars.
