My Question Has Been Answered

Back when Timber and I bought our condo and the property was assessed by the county higher and higher every year, which meant we had to pay more in property taxes every year I wondered something.  I wondered if the county would lower the assessed value of our property if and when it started to go back down.  This article answers my questions.  I'm too lazy do to a deep dive into this, but I'm sure that they were faster to tack on the gains to the property taxes than they are to take off the losses as the values go down.  Its just a hunch.  But in general I think it is safe to assume that the government is going to try to get as much money out of you as possible.
