Re:Man Loses Home After Failing to Pay $8.41 in Property Taxes by robocat on Sunday December 08, 2019 @01:36PM (#21737332)
If I own two properties, I pay twice the taxes, but I don’t receive nearly 2 x the civilisation. (Wage taxes are even worse at proportional benefit).

That said, I really like the benefits from taxes - a good government and social cohesion: there are plenty of places in the world with less taxes and less government that appear extremely unappealing to live in.

If you reserve two hotel rooms, you have to pay twice the fare, even though you can't enjoy twice the amenity. That's just the way hotels work.
