Then I’m totally lost, what did you mean?
Initially, I meant that adding steps with intention to lean the total solution toward reparation for the exploited masses while also allowing for said benefits to landlords, et al, to be taxed at a later point as a balancing component… is naive at best. Dig?
That does explain the theoretical concern, thank you.
However, your landlord getting $1 more doesn’t make the $2 you get “useless”. Higher taxes or rent caps later will help even more, but aren’t a requirement for the policy to be a net gain right now.
