Portugal ends Golden Visas, curtails Airbnb rentals to address housing crisis
- notgonnadothat 4y agothis sounds so like Japan and the kind of demographic divide they have, mixed with aged population getting benefits from the govt while the youth is squeezed a lot from taxes - and often inheritance taxes and bullshit laws for properties resulted in skyrocketing inflation of housing feel free to correct i might be wrong about it
- slaw 4y agoIt looks like most or all developed countries are like that, not only Portugal and Japan.
- JetSpiegel 4y agoI believe when I see it. There was a proposal to end the Golden Visa program a few months back and PS (the ruling party, super majority on parliament) voted against. The PM said at the time that "maybe" it was time to end, but when the rubber meets the road, they voted against the laws.
