    Inheritance tax (exists not in all countries) seems to be another factor reducing property ownership and driving up rents. Houses are inherited by not so wealthy heirs that can not afford tax and then sell or increase rents.

      That’s a lie, the only reason they have high property tax is because their home value is high which is solely due to a shortage. There should be an extremely high land value tax to incentivize development on valuable land. This will lead to lower rents, not higher

    Tax the publicly created value of land and abolish income and sales taxes

    Agree mostly. I'm open to more public housing as long as zoning is firstly deregulated.

    Leave them to do as they want........so long as they are not breaking the law. Such as murder. Cause who wants to live in a neighborhood with murders going on? I don't think anyone wants that.
    So play nice.

      @@youngKOkid1 He's a psychopathic narcissist so he's drawing the analogy between building more houses in his neighborhood to treating his neighborhood like a toilet. So degenerates like him help zone of land against new housing to keep people out of his neighborhood and keep his property value as high as possible.

      @@youngKOkid1 You really think someone with such contempt for humanity as to treat new people as raw sewage would ever change his mind? The number of people who are that evil who ever change there mind is close to 0. These people are hopeless, the only thing they're good for is using them to show the world how bad their ideas are.
