    Probottom: why do we include migrants in our homelessness statistics if we’re not offering them social welfare?

    Propowerbottom: tax brackets should also be influenced by the number of properties a person owns. Unless a real estate agent and actively trying to sell or reno the property, get penalized for hoarding.

    Edit: @[email protected] I’m disappointed in your correction. Now I just look like a fool! I thought we were ride or die!!

      Almost like we shouldn’t tie human necessities to profit.

      Seems like a very similar situation common to many Americans.
