Since the long-term Obamugabe plan is to turn the government into the landlord, this makes abundant sense. A small part of the people won’t be able to pay the tax, then there will be a lien, etc. with the property finally seized.
Maybe a large corporation or union will then administer the properties —some entity that is backer of The System.
This is all about transferring private wealth into public coffers —witness GE, GM. etc.
Same deal.
