"SNIP......

“Two weeks before he would become one of the year’s most famous and polarizing Republican nominees for office, Mehmet Oz was approved for a large tax exemption on a house he owns in a community close to his heart,” the Miami Herald reports.

“The tax break wasn’t for Oz’s newly purchased home in Pennsylvania, the state he is trying to represent in the U.S. Senate. And it wasn’t for any of his properties in New Jersey, which critics argue is Oz’s true home state.”

“It was for a house in Palm Beach, Florida, a playground for the wealthy that Oz has described as ‘heaven.'”

3. THIS is his idea of heaven?

Guess if you have money. Two foot beach with piles of seaweed and dead fish? Bunch of third world dictator type mansions. Really?

7. He does his $3M renovation and sticks locals with the $60K tax shortfall.

5. Any idea why he got the tax break????

The most common tax break in Florida is to claim a "homestead exemption" which would further complicate his claims of Pennsylvania residency...

[TheBlackAdder]

6. Perhaps a farm exemption, stating there was at least one jckass on the premises.

8. Um, can you get a tax exemption for more than

One homestead?

9. If you claim Florida, that's it...

I have a home in D.C. and Florida, I claim Florida because of my homeowners insurance, and I vote here. I can't have two driver's licenses anymore but I might have screwed that on my own.
