It would seem so. Property owners pay property taxes. Landlords are
property
owners that must cover the cost of their property taxes through the
rents
they charge to tenants. Tenants pay rent which includes the portion of
revenues the landlord must pay in property taxes. If the renters aren't
paying their "fair share" that can only be the case if landlords are
not
paying sufficient taxes, which is clearly not the problem or
responsibility
of the renters.

Brilliant, Holmes! I couldn't have said it better myself.


What happened to your socialistic, egalitarian "share the pain" zeal?

Or do you just like the idea of sticking it to landowners because they are
somehow immoral for presuming to own something you can't afford?

That's not very consistent.
