Land is owned by the collective citizenry, managed by the governments, and leased to us (even if we "buy it"). Property taxes are essentially what we pay to the government for our lease. This is based on the concept of zoning as government takings, because they exercise their control over land even considered to be "private."

Outrageous! How could such a system ever work? 

You would have to fool millions into believing that leased land was REALLY their own, based on "natural rights" preceding government. 

How plausible is that?
