    This particular situation is a little more extreme, but you’d be wrong. Homeowners are seeing their property taxes raised by criminal percentages nationwide. Thankfully most are fighting back.

      What you actually mean is that the housing market is hot dumping a bunch of unearned wealth on every asshole who bought a house in the last 50 years meaning that with the extra wealth you get to pay additional taxes.

        Fuck you for shitting on people who own a house to live in.

        Fuck you for shifting the blame away from corporate house flippers and other people who buy houses as investments instead of as a fucking place to live.

        Fuck you in general for implying that economically forcing people out of their homes because some rich fucks want them is the fault of the homeowners.

          Asking people to pay a share of their unearned wealth the same as all of us have to pay out of our earned wealth is totally shitting on them…
