The property tax is the most unfair tax of them all. You can be on your deathbed with no income and if you dont pay your tribute to the county mafia you will be thrown out of a home that you may have worked a lifetime to buy.

The ‘problem’ is in your presumption: They cannot tax what you own. Ergo, you bought the house, but NOT the ‘property’.
I believe that there are some municipalities in IL that have some sort of waiver of certain property taxes for low income seniors to guard against that.
