    How about if you want more than 1 house it comes with a huge tax bill every year to deter people from gobbling up all the real estate

      Yes, but also no conflicts of interests.

      Such a bill would never pass if it means people writing and voting on the bill have a versed interest in neutering the bill or voting against it.

      Tax brackets also need to be fixed, loop holes need to be closed, but it won’t happen either because we have millionaires holding cabinet positions, or politicians who have millionaire friends they’d like to help out in exchange for funding.

      I for one would love to have a vacation home. The market out there doesn’t allow for it though, but those that have no home come first.
