Prove it. I highly doubt the completed suburban community maintenance costs are higher than they pay in taxes year to year. When you mentioned inflation I didn't think you meant on the initial investment, which of course you are correct on. I don't care if they end the subsidies on new communities, obviously the city felt to maintain growth they had to give incentive to developers.
Like 4x4 said, this whole argument is a joke. Everyone complaining made a conscious decision to live in the inner city, pay more for homes and consequently more taxes. Thats the cost of convenience and the lifestyle you desire. It also happens to have its benefits when your home prices climbed more rapidly during the boom than the exterior of the city.
