Immoral is forcing thousands of people to live on the streets in squalor because people don't like change.
No one is calling for Grandma to be evicted. Property taxes for residents could be allowed to accumulate unpaid until sale or transfer of a property.
- jelliclesfarm 7y agoPeople don’t have to live in squalor in expensive Bay Area. They can move. But there is a red carpet in Ca for homeless from other states to live because they are the poverty porn displayed to milk more taxes. Oldest trick in the politicians handbook to impose more taxes. It’s always ‘compassion’ isn’t it? The reason to extract more taxes and usually championed by those who don’t have to contribute anything. So if accumulated property tax will remain unpaid, how does any of it help keep people ‘off the streets and no in squalor’? What is the Big Plan? If people are going to be taxed after their death, is it like a death tax? Forced charity? Theft by proxy? This is literally thuggery. The current youth population and the government are working hand in hand as fellow thugs. And engaging in elder financial abuse. However, there is a solution. One can impose hefty inheritance taxes. One can impose higher tax bracket for foreign owned properties. I would like to see that rather than citizens turning against citizens of their own country. Further..has any of the YIMBYs sat in city council meetings and looked at city and county budgets. Or the state budget? There is a LOT of money. There are a lot of infrastructure improvements to be made that will make life better for everyone. And yet Sacramento does nothing. None of the young non home owning YIMBY professionals ever question that. Perhaps because they have been indoctrinated in public school and taught fake economics. They have literally been hand fed to believe that nanny state is the best and higher taxes will solve everything. Perhaps it is this lack of financial literacy and responsibility that is causing them to be the handmaidens of the govt bureaucracy to act as thugs against middle class senior citizens. Over crowded schools, inefficient DMVs, pot holes on roads, congested freeways, tolls on every stretch of freeways leading to Silicon Valley..Bart is a joke. Homeless on streets after billions spent. And more density on top of this inefficiency?
