While the obscenely wealthy keep buying up 4th and 5th vacation houses in rural areas driving up prices til the locals can no longer afford to live there. And those homes sold to the rich are lucky if they have tenants more than a week a year. Therefore they put next to nothing into the local economy, which they destroy.
@roberthurdman@mastodon.online seriously, we need to claw back the tax breaks the orange stain gifted the filthy rich, at the expense of the rapidly shrinking middle class. Perhaps claw back a few more, earlier tax breaks.
The Republicans want to take us back to the 1950s, and I'm in favor of that, with the tax code. The top marginal income tax rate was 91%. Today it's 37%.
