That way the majority of these properties would be free to help those in real need, not just those who take because they can

Where I come from wealth is defined as this: being able to keep the roof over your head, pay the bills put food on the table and have a bit left over for yourself. if that is not right please let me know.
You seem to be contradicting yourself BG. One minute you measure pride byhow far up the property ladder you can climb,( and in effect saying if you don't own your own property you have no pride ) then you measure it by being able to support yourself and your family. I wouldn't use the latter to measure wealth.
