Why is it somehow bad that people who are investing their money in the place where they live - thus becoming more responsible citizens than renters who can just pack up and leave - are getting a small bonus for it?
- arbuge 10y agoPlease provide proof to back up your claim that this makes them "more responsible citizens".
- rootusrootus 10y agoAlthough the parent poster was being a little inflammatory with the choice of words, there is a bit of an interesting point there. Is there a benefit to society in general from people owning homes instead of renting? High portability can benefit the renter, but a bigger commitment to the neighborhood perhaps benefits the rest of us? Maybe enough to incentivize?
- tanderson92 10y agoHigh portability might also benefit society. We hear a lot about families in the midwest who are locked into their employment markets which are declining.
