    Property tax hurts landlords and I’m here for that.

    What did this guy pay for his house, like 20k?

      I’m really trying to reconcile how the Chinese manage a more equal society while having a fraction of the tools we do; they don’t have property taxes, just a lease you renew every ~70 years, they can’t do QE like we do.

      It’s like we have all the tools to delay the trajectory of capitalism, we just choose not to use it.
