This is a huge part of why cities have such high rent. There is enough housing, but huge swaths of apartments are sitting empty so they can be used in speculative portfolios. Then the landlice raise the rent of the units that are occupied and it artificially increases the value of their other empty properties.
Truly disgusting behavior. Star Trek type homeless riots are coming v soon if we dont get it in check.
I really wish they would but they’re not we don’t need riots we need extermination the wealthy must die their heirs must die their names pissed on or erased every ambition salted and more I’m scared what happens if we dont
“Needing riots” is not my point. Nobody “needs” riots. But when the powers at be decide to disenfranchise the populace and revoke or corrupt every avenue of civil justice, they leave people with nothing to lose but their chains or lives. It would obviously be better to just launch them all into the sun or something. But that is not how revolutions tend to go. People cling to their comforts until they can’t; and by then so many are so desperate and so angry, that riots just happen.
And guess who happens to be the most targeted in real revolutionary riots… thats right, class traitors and the owning class.
Like taxing homes a second time? Or taxing second homes?
Second homes. People own NYC homes and never even see them. It’s just an investment that sits empty.
