  • Let's just hope the EU steps in with Google trying to become an iPhone clone and making third party stores impossible without their bidding. Only then can we have a deGoogled phone past 2026

  • I really wonder how they count this. Does this count children above 18 living at home? Do they magically assign ownership to people who have been in the same abode for more than 5 years or something? The majority of people I know are renting and if societies have ~30% < 35 y.o how can the rest all have homes? That doesn't seem possible.

    These numbers are highly suspect to me.

  • How would a wealth tax affect real estate rentals?

    Jump

  • My concern was that not everybody can afford to buy a house, but back in the day people on a receptionist income could buy a house, so if we go back to those days, house ownership would rise again. And as others made me realise, the stuff standing empty for investment would be sold to be used again and outsized homes could be sold to be repurposed as social housing or jousing outright.

    Jump

  • Good point! Yes, larger estates could be sold to be used for housing multiple people or indeed for building new housing. Thank you

  • How would a wealth tax affect real estate rentals?

    Jump

  • Well, there is a lack of houses for rent at the moment. Aaand, while writing that, I remembered that there are lot of things standing empty because they are for investment! If those were forced to be sold, that would add more housing stock on the market.

    Thanks for the comment.

  • How would a wealth tax affect real estate rentals?

    Jump

  • The idea is to make the wealthy sell some of their assets. Thus driving the price of those assets down. If people horde fewer houses, the market of buyers shrinks and prices fall.

    But who will they be selling to? I imagine it will be people who actually want to live in their homes, not just rent them out. Wouldn't that reduce the number of available homes people can rent?

  • It's still amazing progress. First this, then they'll understand more of why it works and why it doesn't. That will allow them tailor it or find other approaches to have the same or better results.
