If property taxes are increasing, the value of the home and the wealth of the resident are increasing far in excess of the home.

The only fair thing to do is to allow some portion of the taxes into a lien that is paid out when the he is sold.

It's extremely unfair to reward excess wealth to the wealthy people of a community, while everyone else is struggling just to find a place to live.

Not only is it unfair, but it skews financial incentives and results in very poor politics for improving the unfair housing situation.
