But why are the democrats coming to the defense of a bunch of millionaires? They told them they weren't paying their fair share during the election.
That, and property taxes are entirely too high in NY/NJ.
SF's wealthy will simply just pay off their mortgages from their investment accounts.
So they were able to pay their fair share before, but just didnt.

Taxes are one thing. Valuations are another. It takes two to tango.
Quote:Who this hurts are people that need to borrow to afford that SF house
It doesnt affect those people unless they need to borrow more than$750,000 for their working/middle class bungalow.
Quote:or that beach house in Destin (watch out for that - which will probably be a far greater impact).
yea, lets not pass comprehensive tax cuts for the middle class because those poor people purchasing a second beach house on the Florida coast wont be able to deduct as much mortgage interest on their federal return.
