- oblio 5y agoIt's related since there's a very strong argument you (and Americans in general) aren't paying enough taxes and some things should be outright banned (single family homes on 75% of built land, in a country with an ever-growing population and a housing affordability crises and some of the highest per capita greenhouse gas emissions; maybe that percentage should be 50% or 33%)). But that's political suicide to say out loud as a politician.
