malwaretech, I've lived in the US for so long that I forgot other countries have like semi-serious government that actually do stuff. I just tried to buy a house in the UK and since I was last there they've added a billion new taxes. There's a buying a house tax, a buying a second house tax, a buying a house when you don't live in the UK even though you're a citizen tax, a non-resident landlord tax, UK specific capital gains tax... and they all stack on top of each other. I am going to get absolutely clapped by taxes, but it's nice to see even right-wing governments trying to address the housing crisis.
