Exactly. The only thing wrong with Council Tax is that the
value it's based on is not reassessed regularly, and that it's
set in bands instead of X-percent of assessed value.

Poll tax was the best system. Pay for what you get.

Except the system didn't work like that.

Toll booth society's do not work. Look at USA cities. Sprawl of homes and
the only break is a highway and sports fields - no parks because no one
wants to pay for them. Awful places to live.
