In silicon valley a huge % of the available houses are rentals from absentee landlords. But anyway that isn't the issue to me. The issue is, should Warren Buffett pay 2K for a four million dollar house while I pay 16K for my house. Tell me why you think this is just, I'd love to hear it. Because the schools around me suck, the community college is in a 50 yr old bldg and other services are in dire need of repair. Call me crazy but it seems to me Warren should be paying at least 20K for a four million dollar house. PS I am getting REALLY tired of these giveaways to the rich

Your view is wrong wrong wrong. Don't take my word for it. Go down to the assessor's office and look at the tax roll. Take your own neighborhood. Go see how many properties are paying $2,000 while you are paying 6-10 times that. this is just arm waving. you say "Your view is wrong wrong wrong" but instead of backing it up with facts, you tell her to go downtown and look stuff up. if you're going to tell somebody they're "wrong wrong wrong", then you need to back it up with FACTS, not arm waving.
