It’s how America funds it’s military and the bureaucratic inefficiency stemming from reliance on private companies, if it was my tax money then I would be sufficiently mad that it’s being used to only keep the status quo for education, which people decry as mediocre at best, and actively used to partake in Palestine, and provide money to the military Industrial complex instead of, say, construction of a railway or a new act to reform land zoning regulation, providing districts with better funding and reform of police to lessen the authority and increase the accountability.
Also, instantly assuming exactly what you hate onto me is crazy, the fuck are you doing?
The military is funded through the Congressional budgetary process, with funds the federal government receives from federal income tax and other sources.
Property taxes are remitted to the local government, and it’s possible a small portion may go to the state or federal government, but the majority stays at the county level. The county uses this to pay for public infrastructure, schools, etc. No portion of county funding is going to the military unless you count your local police force.
Property taxes aren’t federal, they’re local. They’re assessed at the county/township/city level. If you’re complaining about shitty education, lower property taxes won’t help that. They do fund local transit and and rail projects. They don’t fund the military, because again, property taxes are local. They do fund the police, that’s like the only thing you got right.

I’m not who you replied to, but I didn’t, don’t, think property taxes in general go towards the federal budget.
