Since condominium owners have become so accustomed to the tax advantages derived from their rental properties, any fiscal policy designed to withdraw these benefits would make them angry. Clearly the word is indignation.
And indeed implementation of such a policy would be like trying to remove a bone from the jaws of starving dog. The word is prise. It was been wrongly spelled as prize.
The analogy of prising a bone from the jaws of a starving dog further rules out forbearance (tolerance, patience) and apathy (indifference) for the first blank.
