I’m not entirely unsympathetic since property values have skyrocketed ridiculously

Absolutely.

Where I live here in KC the county was sued over it, and the people won, and they're still not going to get a reimbursement. Property tax assessments are insane, and millionaire or no, it's exceedingly unfair and wrong.

Yet another example of how having one party ruling in Washington is screwing all of us over. There's just largely no real recourse.
