🗳️ We the People: Reclaiming Our Power!
🏛️ SEAL SD Stands with You! 🇺🇸
“We the People” isn’t just a phrase—it’s our battle cry! At SEAL SD, we’re fighting to take back our power from the tax swamp and make South Dakota the freest state in the nation. The Core GRT Plan is your ticket to financial freedom, and it starts with YOU.
The Tax Swamp Drains Us
Property taxes are a burden on every South Dakotan—$1.5 billion a year, straight out of your pocket! That’s money you could use for your family, your farm, or your business. The swamp uses it to fund bloated programs, leaving us with less liberty and more control.
- Your Home: A $300,000 home pays $4,500 in property taxes yearly—that’s $4,500 you’re not spending on what matters.
- Your Farm: A 1,000-acre farm at $1,000/acre pays $15,000—money that could buy new equipment or livestock.
- The Swamp Wins: They take your hard-earned cash while you struggle to keep up.
The Core GRT Plan: Power Back to You
Our plan replaces ALL state taxes with a 5% Gross Receipts Tax (GRT), raising $3.6 billion to fund what matters—schools, roads, police—without property taxes. That’s $2.1 billion more than the sales tax’s $1.5 billion in 2025, and it saves you $3,000–$5,000 a year!
- Your Savings: That $300,000 home? You save $4,500. That 1,000-acre farm? You save $15,000.
- Your Rebate: $200 back for every resident (6+ months)—$60M total for 300,000 South Dakotans.
- Your Freedom: No more property taxes means more money in your pocket, not the swamp’s.
We the People Make It Happen
This isn’t a “me” plan—it’s a “we” plan! We’ve listened to thousands of South Dakans over 6 months—hundreds of comments on Facebook, in person, and over the phone. Your voice shapes this fight. Now, we need your action:
- Step 1: Sign the petition—35,017 signatures by May 5, 2025.
- Step 2: Vote YES in November 2026 to end property taxes!
- Step 3: Join us! Volunteer, sponsor, or share your story at https://sealsd.com/steps-to-ballot/.
Together, we can reclaim our power and secure liberty for ourselves and our posterity. Join the Liberty Warriors today! 🛡️
