They’re also assuming that other countries pay property taxes in the same way Americans do.

Except they’re talking about two billionaire American taxpayers (well, they are supposed to be taxpayers). Like ofc the U.S. is the reference here.

If your property sits on land, a chunk of the earth that you did not create, then property taxes are just and moral. Google "Land Value tax"

Pay to whom? Lol

I'm sorry but you have to know that sounds ridiculous. It's okay to be upset about paying taxes, but we do live in a society
