A house and a plot of land are our right to own if we want it, its one of the tenants of our form of society.
Just like its someonelse's right if they want to live in a densely packed downtown.
Its market rules that dense areas have higher real estate values thus the higher taxes. If the city wants us to move everyone downtown let them offer tax neutral incentives that I don't have to pay for.
