If I understand correctly, you think your personal circumstance should be the basis for sweeping government policies changes that affect everyone? That's the most DCUM thing ever.

You also are clearly not being forthright in your statements. If you bought 22 years ago and did not buy new build, then you kitchens and baths would be older than 22 years old. You also seem to know enough to discount for inflation, but also think that saying you had a 225% increase in the nominal price of your house is extremely important enough to change government policy, without bothering to factor in interest, taxes, insurance or maintenance?

Just to demonstrate how ridiculous your proposition of "unearned windfall" is, the average mortgage interest rate 22 years about was 7%. If you did not refinance, you would have paid >100% of your principal on mortgage interest in 22 years. Now add that to inflation and where is the "unearned windfall"?

C'mon man. You are going to have to do better than that.[/quote]
