Why is the govt (i.e., taxpayers) paying off a mortgage good for society? And if you later sell the house, do you keep the money, or pay back what the govt paid? Who benefits from the enormous appreciation (if the govt will be paying off the mortgage, why not offer $5 million for a typical 3br?)?
- glitchcrab 5y agoI don't think they meant that the government should actually do this, it was just to indicate the scale.
