- JanezStupar 10y agoAnd thus you are seeking rent from those with more property than yourself. Fantastic.
- crdoconnor 10y agoPeople who own yield bearing properties (e.g. landlords - not me) are extracting value from others. You can spin that fact any way that you want but it's still a fact. That's why I don't call it redistributive taxation. It's re-redistributive taxation.
