It shouldn't be that hard to understand.
One is a tax from the government that will be paid every single year on what you own. You'll have to no doubt sell your property every year to pay taxes on what you have.
On the other hand, investors are volunteering to loan money based upon what your shares are worth today (and potentially in the future) in order to make more money off of you. This is not a tax. It, like a mortgage, is a gamble by the banks on their ability to make money from you.
One question, if the government is going to tax you on what your property is worth today then will they give you a refund if your shares lose money over time?
