I am so glad that I don't live in your country.

Why not just do it the sane way, where you assess the value of someone's home by assigning an employee to assess it's worth, and measuring the price of homes for sale around him?

Do you want to be forced out of your home because you didn't want to pay too much in taxes? Why don't you want someone to be able to say "sorry, not for sale" without robbing them blind in taxes?
