What would also shield a poorer person from the risks of house ownership is if houses werent so expensive in the first place.

there is 16 million vacant homes in the US. scarce maybe where lots of people want to live..

Tesla stock has made unreal gains the past 10 years probably people are motivated by money

How is there a supply problem when there's 16 million vacant homes and 1 million people died of covid?

great point. it seems only natural these should be converted to residential

do you have any insight into why costs for projects are so high?
127.
by EricDeb 4y ago
it would be fun to personally work along with this project and understand the costs as they are happening. I feel like this would help me get a better feel.

I mean it's similar to rent going up.. you could afford it before you can't afford it now sorry

I for one don't mind if alcohol is available at work events but I agree no one should be pressured to participate

would have been smart if you bought it for a good deal.

I believe the point is that, yes what biden did here is bad, but what trump did regularly was significantly worse (especially calling into question the 2020 election)

no they're not the payoff is so near non existent because they don't focus on electoral issues but cultural issues

I assume tesla could attract talent at those salaries due to the stock prospects. Wonder if that's the case nowadays.

It's good that both sides are held to account. I just hope this is being applied evenly.

I dont think Musk necessarily thinks all of that is ending.. more that he doesn't want to pay for all the employees that currently exist at twitter so he's making life miserable for them.

by EricDeb 4y ago
It would be funny if Musk's long con was to get all the liberals driving his electric cars and then change his political affiliation to get all the conservatives on electric cars all in the service of reducing co2 emissions

by EricDeb 4y ago
Yes every mainstream media source must be verified by 4 independent eyewitnesses and police body cam footage, but what musk linked to is "probably true" cause "trust me bro."

Think about music for example. There's plenty of good music made by people with broken lives.

Asking specifically what you don't think rings true or for examples is different than condescension

This is a inaccurate in my opinion. Obviously all developers should be writing code but in my experience there's usually about half new feature work and half maintenance. A lot of the maintenance is of projects written by people no l

I went there and yes had to awkwardly crouch/walk up that whole thing.

I guess it's good they will quickly rebuild but it doesn't say a lot of good things about the state of the housing market.

A vacancy tax would make it less attractive to investors but people purchasing it to live there as their primary residence wouldn't mind. I dont see how forcing a landlord to rent a property out at market rates or pay a tax is a massi

It's not called stealing. When you purchased an apartment in NYC you purchased it with the understanding that it was subject to rules and regulations of the city, which could change.

I'm too lazy to read that is rent control mean there's a hard cap or it can only go up X% per year?
147.
by EricDeb 4y ago
Or do a bit of both. Add a vacancy tax and also incentivize building
148.
by EricDeb 4y ago
How about a vacancy tax so landlords can't just keep properties off the market?
149.
by EricDeb 4y ago
How about a vacancy tax? Then sellers are forced to sell driving prices down so more people who actually want to live there (not rent it out) can afford to buy?

It's good to point out a lot of nimbyism is defensive. As much as we like to demonize it, people are legitimately worried about their life savings investment getting cut in half if suddenly tons of new places were built
