Comment on The rich convinced us that taxing them is too complicated but everyday people can be taxed pretty easily

You tried to say that the current system where billionaires don’t pay taxes on unrealized income while ordinary homeowners do is a fair arrangement because homeowners use things they pay for in other bills and taxes.

I’d say to stop simping for the worst humans, but I think you’d evaporate if you tried.

I wouldn’t say it is fair, no, but I am defending property taxes an the two aren’t really comparable at all.

  You’re defending charging property taxes on spurious grounds. Homeowners already pay for the things you claim as justification for taxing them.
  
  I don’t care what campaign promises harris made. She was a continuation of biden, and that means no promises kept.
