    A hunting cabin is purely a luxury. There’s nothing authoritarian about having high taxes for luxuries, and no, blanket taxes on luxuries are not inherently authoritarian.

    Sure, it could unfairly impact people, but since in this situation there’s no needs, only luxuries, the balance of how increased housing supply fairly easily balances the scale.

    And no, the point of my original comment is to understand impact. Realize harms the law could create, and don’t do it blindly. But that’s just to understand what you’re putting on the scales.

      I don’t even know why I’m engaging with you. I just realized you’re not who I responded to originally.

      If you post your anecdotal experience about a hunting cabin and then go on to argue against exemptions to a tax targeted at real estate hoarders you’re as dumb as the person I did reply to originally.
