@ignova I never said it was intolerable.

Taxation is a necessary evil to fund government in a modern society.

However, as we set tax policy we need to balance the real world implications and the real world impacts of the tax regimes that we settle on.

So this will make it harder for families to afford houses, and it will make it harder for travelers to find places to stay, but maybe we decide that those are acceptable costs to fund the social programs that we find important.

It's fine to make that trade off. We just have to be conscious of the costs as we do.
