Isn't that identical to the old, "I don't pay property taxes - my landlords pay property taxes" fallacy? The landlords simply shift the burden to the renters by "upping" the rent.

Yes, this is true but it is charged to the renter as “rent”, not a tax. It would be ridiculous for someone to think that their rent includes no taxes being passed along by the landlord, just as they often pass along part of the cost of the utilities, etc. It’s a cost of doing business.
