This is mostly pasture for our cow, but I do have a large garden. If not for the property taxes I'd truly be free.

Oh ok ok, but still, you have your own thing there. Are the taxes too high?

Any taxes are too high, and they never go away, so freedom is relative. Do I consider myself free? Yes, but there will always be taxes to be paid as long as we own the property, which makes it less free. If that makes any sense.
