What would stop owners from shifting the burden to the renters?
As of right now this is already how property taxes are handled by most landlords: mortgage + tax + est. cost to fix incidentals + time managing paperwork = rent (in a fair situation - though most will tack on as much extra for "profit" as they can)
So if you have a house worth 600k (12k tax), the mortgage is $3500/mo, they would just charge $4500+ a month to cover their costs.
I think the only way is to add extremely progressive property tax to multiple ownerships, and a name always has to be attached as "owner". So your first house and second might have limited property taxes, but your third would be double, fourth would be quadruple, fifth would be 8x etc.
For some reason you're fixated on pretending it's not the west and US's problem too. Whataboutism is the refuge of the sycophant.

There's also a big difference between "life expectancy" and "quality of life". Being overweight is uncomfortable, limiting, and can be a burden on people around you. I have no way of knowing if I'll live longer, but my life has become immeasurably better since I went from nearly obese to normal weight.
Additionally, I think the biggest factor to control for is socioeconomic status. A well-off fat person is probably going to have better life expectancy than a poor skinny person.
Dawg I am literally left as fuck - I wasn't saying it was both sides at all. I'm saying each side individually has their own reasons for answering the question the way they did. Do you think conservatives make up more than 60% of the population?
It would be like asking "Do you think the government provides the right amount of welfare?"
Most people would say "no" because you'd have Republicans saying Gov provides too much welfare, and Democrats saying Gov doesn't provide enough welfare.
Dropping a blanket statement like "This country is filled with idiots" is SIGNIFICANTLY more "both sides" than my point was.
God I wish I lived in a country that wasn't so filled with idiots.
Sounds like you agree with the adults, then. That's exactly the sentiment that's causing this issue - no matter which side you fall on, there are conservatives who believe the education is too "woke", and liberals that believe the education is too watered down by moneyed and religious interests. Believing the country is filled with idiots is precisely why adults in general express dissatisfaction with education.
Nah, the beef lobbies will just have the government increase subsidies. Obviously corporate profits are more important than the future of the human race.
True, it's just what came to mind. And it's a really good book.
