This hurts regular people far worse than the upper class that has spent 3+ years hording and acquiring assets. They're trying to fix inept government policy on the backs of the labour that allows the country to function rather than having the hording class pay a fair share to sustain society.

Property taxes should increase exponentially with each additional property you own. Double or triple for corporations. That will do a large part to fix our issues, but the government will only enact policies favourable to the landowners.

Higher interest rates are the tough medicine we do need today to combat inflation. But government policies need to be there to ensure the social costs are minimized but somehow that safety net isn't sufficient today is it? Additionally more action needs to be done on oligopolies and consolidation that's happening across every industry that reduces competition.
