View MoreChet McAteer Allodial title refers to the absolute ownership of land, free from any obligations to a superior authority. In theory, it grants the owner complete and unencumbered rights to the property. However, the imposition of property taxes fundamentally challenges the concept of allodial title, transforming property ownership into a form of perpetual tenancy. Allodial Title vs. Feudalistic Systems: This is the most complete form of ownership where the owner holds the property outright without owing service or payment to any overlord or government. Historically, allodial titles were rare and often reserved for sovereigns. In contrast, under feudalism, serfs or tenants worked the land and paid rents or services to a lord who owned the land. This relationship was marked by continual obligations and the potential for forfeiture if dues were not met. Property taxes impose a continuous financial obligation on the property owner, effectively requiring them to pay "rent" to the government annually. Failure to pay these taxes can result in the seizure and sale of the property by the government. This system implies that the owner never fully owns the property outright, as there is a perpetual requirement to pay taxes. This undermines the allodial concept where ownership is supposed to be absolute and unconditional. Property taxes, particularly on homes and land, create a scenario similar to serfdom where the so-called owner must continually pay the state to retain their property. Just as serfs were bound to their lords, modern property owners are bound to the government through tax obligations. If the property owner fails to pay these taxes, they can lose their property, akin to a serf losing their tenancy rights for failing to meet their obligations. Property taxes infringe on the fundamental American value of private property ownership. They contend that these taxes erode personal freedom and financial security, as homeowners are never free from the threat of losing their property due to tax delinquency. Property taxes can place a significant financial burden on homeowners, particularly those with fixed or limited incomes, making it challenging to sustain long-term property ownership. Advocates for reform suggest alternatives to property taxes, such as sales or income taxes, which do not directly threaten homeownership. They argue for systems that allow individuals to truly own their property without perpetual financial obligations to the government. Ensuring that property rights are protected and upheld without the threat of forfeiture for non-payment of taxes is seen as essential to preserving the American ideal of private property ownership. The imposition of property taxes effectively transforms property ownership into a form of perpetual tenancy, contradicting the principles of allodial title. This system is viewed by many as feudalistic and un-American, infringing on the rights and freedoms associated with true property ownership. Advocates for change call for alternative taxation methods that protect homeowners from the perpetual financial burdens imposed by property taxes. -cmcateer

I believe only 2 or 3 states recognize allodial titles in the US
