Normal HOA fees are to maintain common areas, lawn care, etc. The services being paid for are normally listed somewhere, there's no deliberate deception. If your premise is that the people you mention; firefighters, police, etc. are somehow providing those services during their free time you're missing the point.

Trash collectors "create" their own paychecks. Every working professional is "creating" a paycheck while they work. We do not pay for each others skill and labor because skill and labor pays for itself! Our paychecks are "created into existence through working! We each have been given a Social Security "Account" Number. We create value for the credits/numbers contained in this account, then at the end of each week, these account numbers/credits will have value, thus be given to us in the form of a paycheck, also known as a "pay coupon", then we take this pay coupon to the Bank to have it turned into currency. Property tax is ground rent. We do not truly "own" the land even if we truly own the house, thus, we forever pay ground rent. "This land is your land, this land is my land...is just another song filled with mockery. Last Edited by Donny Boy on 10/29/2016 09:25 AM (Don ald, Donny boy) |

Quoting: Donny Boy Now let me give you a scenerio and see if you can recognize the deception... Let's say there is a community made up of professionals with Teachers, firemen, police, trash collectors etc... Would the HOA be collecting cash from the Teachers to pay for the firemen or police etc... or would the HOA be collecting cash from the Police and Teachers etc...to pay the firemen?

Donny Boy (OP) User ID: 73283392 United States 10/30/2016 12:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | First, I apologize for any misunderstanding concerning who collects for what, such as HOA dues or local taxes and what they supposedly pay for. I dont want the main reason for creating this thread to be lost... What I am trying to convey to the reader is...we do not pay for each others time/energy/skill and labor, that is just ridiculous to believe. Either we are led to believe HOA is paying the Trash Collection Company or led to believe local taxes is collected to pay for teachers, road workers and so on... The point Im trying to make is, we create our own paycheck while we work. The value for our paycheck is being supplied by our own time/energy/skill and labor, not somebody else's! We work, we create value resulting in a paycheck at the end of each week, in turn, we are given a paycheck (or pay coupon), we then take this pay check/pay coupon to the bank and exchange it for the currency. If we had to pay for firemen, teachers etc...then firemen and teachers would be paid with cash, not a paycheck or pay coupon that is later turned into cash. Firemen and teachers carry their own value, they don't need the value we use to create a paycheck to pay for their paycheck, it doesn't even make sense! But through semantics, our minds have been trained to believe taxes are collect to pay for these Professionals, even though its not written down anywhere!! We just believe it, so we continue to pay the taxes thinking "well, firemen need to get paid to, they are not going to work for free" With this mentality, you will not recognize firemen go to work, and apply theirs skills creating their own paycheck the same way you do! We each carry value WITHIN...our skills that will result in a paycheck when we apply these skills at our Job. Doctors create their own paychecks Vets create their own paychecks Nurses create their own paychecks Auto mechanics create their own paychecks CAN YOU SEE??? We have been fooled into belieivng cash from our paycheck needs to be collected to pay for someone else's paycheck, and that is BOLONY!!!! Folks, you need to wake up to this cash collecting deception, because it only gets worse and you dont argue because you think your cash is going to a good cause (ie: paying firemen etc...)

The bill is his price for services rendered which obviously include his expertise as a physician. The bill is a record he creates; call it an invoice. He keeps a copy, sends me my copy. I write a check, perhaps use a credit card, maybe stop by his office and pay cash in the amount of the invoice. I get a receipt from him that acknowledges the invoice has been paid in full. Transaction is complete. He has a record of it, I have a record of it. Your HOA is subject, or should be, to audit. And they are responsible to provide let's say an annual report that summarizes all the transactions over the course of the year. They do this in a "lump sum" which is arrived at by adding up all the transactions for which records exist in their office that took place in a particular expense or revenue category. If they paid $100 per month for trash collection they'd typically simply show one number on the annual report that says Trash Collection Expenses: $1,200.00. They have the record of each of the transactions in their HOA files. So does the trash collection company for their account with your HOA. It's called accounting.
