you could honestly make every apartment cost 100 dollars and no one would actually get affected
Those who own the land and go ape shit over their value don't even take advantage of it and sell it off, more often they just die and have their kids inherit it, and the landlords who benefit from every type of inflation in real estate
of course this assumes every housing unit is owned and managed by the government, and these themselves are incredibly successful even if they only have 10% of the real estate market
The money that exits the economy through large landlords (not small landlords) is essentially wasted, I bet the economy would actually grow if we had proper gov. Housing that allowed people to actually spend their monthly wages on literally anything else
What if you made every apartment cost $100 AND promised to protect Americans from trans Mexican rapists stealin' their jorbs?
you forgot /s
If people actually think that comment was serious, I can only feel sorry for them.
I mean, it's not like there's a lot of trans Mexican rapists to start with. Probably cheapest way to keep them from stealing jobs would be to hire the one or two you do manage to find!
