Here’s a couple ideas for dealing with the housing crisis situation, one of the primary causes of the homeless issues in the first place. Since all we ever seem to do is fail at handling symptoms instead of of causes.
- Foreign companies cannot own private housing.
- Domestic companies cannot own more than say 2-3 private homes, this includes any companies that can be connected through another business or individual. This allows individuals to have second homes or a rental property but means rental businesses are dead, they handle larger condos and apartments. Separate homes are meant for families and individual households.
- Tax vacant housing at high rates to facilitate homes actually being loved in. We have largely enough housing for everyone to have a place, but a lot of it sits unused as bullshit real estate holdings.
- For larger cities, tax vacant retail and office space at a high rate and give incentives to remodel it for more housing. Have maximum vacancy time-frames to incentivize utilizing the spaces instead of just setting bullshit pricing no one will ever pay while “looking” for tenants year after year.
But none of this will happen. Because the oligarchs have their money invested in real estate holdings that don’t move or get and use, so they require little to no maintenance. It’s a large reason why half of NYC looks like a shit hole with boarded up retail spots for decades while a cupboard under the stars costs $1800/mo to rent.
It’s what Jesus would’ve wanted /s
All a part of God’s plan
Thou shalt bulldoze thy neighbor to keep the Sabbath holy.
Great passive voice: “Bulldozer did a bad thing”. Someone should hold that Bulldozer accountable.
They should’ve used the Yoda voice. “Bad thing, bulldozers did.” Rookies smh
Is this a new way of dying that’s only possible in the USA?
Nah, death by bulldozer shows up in any modern industrialized country that really wants some people out of the way. For instance.
Or you could be like the IDF and just run the bulldozers over already dead bodies so that they’re unrecognizable to their relatives.
Edit: live bodies too… I wasn’t sure and didn’t want to make the claim. I should have known. When it comes to the IDF, the cruelty knows no bounds.
She wasn’t in a homeless tent, and saying that people also get bulldozed in warzones isn’t really the same thing.
The US routinely kill the unprofitable.
Achievement get! New death unlocked.
It does give off a “regional exclusive” energy.
Did the Atlanta city workers get training from the IDF?
They needed a bulldozer to take down a few tents? They couldn’t just hire a few folks to deconstruct the area? What the fuck.
Really thought this was going to be a dark onion piece
There are no more dark onions. It’s now real life. 🙃
Bell Riots were supposed to be last year
The Temporal Wars threw a–
You know what? It’s not even worth it. This is truly horrifying.
Fuck this. If anyone deserves to die in the souless arseholes in charge who let this happen.
Yeah, I get it. Tents are really hard to get rid of. You have to use a bulldozer.
