Are they homes in the places people want to live? Vacancies in Bumfuck, OK don’t help homeless people in Chicago.
You’re just also saying the “free market” does a poor job of providing for the needs of the people. A socialist government would build homes where they’re needed
Sure. The problem I’m seeing here is how people approach the solution. You can tax the hell out of vacancies everywhere, but it’s not going to help if there are no vacancies in specific cities.
