I get it, you've got some big feelings about taxation and a thesaurus to go along with it. I'm certainly not going to defend the tax code as a whole, it's a mess to say the least. But we're having two parallel conversations with little overlap. I'm speaking only about whether property taxes meet the definition and spirit of a wealth tax which I don't think they do. You're erring grievances about the tax code as a whole (and also trying to appear above everyone else in your galaxy brained intellect) and only engaging long enough with my argument to construct a straw man. I wish you the best of luck with your manifesto.
