So if you have 7 people living in a 250m^2 house is that worse than 1 person living in a 100m^2 house? Should they pay much higher property taxes?

Probably not. FTR, I never said they should. I didn't propose any dependency on the number of residents, but this does not imply that I think there should be none. There are probably many other variables to take into account, and I didn't want to state a complete proposal. Just one of the many criteria.

That's the problem. Such proposals are totally unworkable, easy to cheat, and require excessively intrusive government.
