The answer to how to make that happen is to tax land value.
- ianburrell 4y agoLand value tax might help but I don’t think it is necessary. We need to allow housing to be built. I think there is enough demand and plenty of people willing to sell to get patchwork development. People aren’t talking about huge changes, mostly multiplexes in single-family areas and high-density in designated corridors. Land value tax might be needed for holdouts, but I suspect greed will do it. Also, forcing out rich grandmas is unpopular.
- joshuaheard 4y agoDo you mean a property tax? We already have those. California also has a sales tax on real estate.
