Farming is not uneconomical

2019-10-09 15:36:58 UTC  

I'd convert to commercial

2019-10-09 15:37:01 UTC  

And keep it empty

joshu does your attitude change if we're talking about rich saudis/chinese/others buying up homes as investments?

2019-10-09 15:37:07 UTC  

Or nominate it as my office

2019-10-09 15:37:14 UTC  

No crafty

2019-10-09 15:37:16 UTC  

Who wants the country to be a sprawling city?

2019-10-09 15:37:20 UTC  

I'm not a fucking socialist

2019-10-09 15:37:26 UTC  

No green, just dead-buildings

2019-10-09 15:37:36 UTC  

Who wants to redistribute wealth from the rich people

2019-10-09 15:37:42 UTC  

Society does

``Foreign investors are buying up thousands of homes suitable for first-time buyers in London, using them as buy-to-let investments and often holding them in offshore tax havens, research for the London mayor, Sadiq Khan, has revealed.

Led by investors from Hong Kong and Singapore, foreign buyers snapped up 3,600 of London’s 28,000 newly built homes between 2014 and 2016, according to the most comprehensive survey yet of international investment in London housing. About half of those were priced for first-time buyers between £200,000 and £500,000.``

*Nice.*

2019-10-09 15:38:26 UTC  

It's fine, people will get them eventually!

2019-10-09 15:38:28 UTC  

We hope!!

2019-10-09 15:38:31 UTC  

Just build more!!!!

2019-10-09 15:38:33 UTC  

you could jus offer tax breaks for anyone constructing low cost high rises, more houses in less space.

2019-10-09 15:38:45 UTC  

You have to redistribute wealth from rich down eventually

2019-10-09 15:38:54 UTC  

I'm not saying no green, we've got forests for that. It's the seas of empty fields that are wasting money. Converting them to council house areas would do something to alleviate the problem.

2019-10-09 15:38:57 UTC  

Or you could just force people to use those assets @killerqwerty

2019-10-09 15:38:59 UTC  

Simple.

2019-10-09 15:39:04 UTC  

You don't have to do it by taking their shit away forcefully

2019-10-09 15:39:10 UTC  

There are not seas of empty fields wasting money

2019-10-09 15:39:12 UTC  

That makes the wealthy leace

2019-10-09 15:39:12 UTC  

Then how will we? kek

2019-10-09 15:39:15 UTC  

Force will always be used

2019-10-09 15:39:17 UTC  

And good luck after that

2019-10-09 15:39:17 UTC  

So what? @Joshu

2019-10-09 15:39:18 UTC  

Jesus christ

2019-10-09 15:39:22 UTC  

Let them leave, kek

2019-10-09 15:39:27 UTC  

They can sell the homes, done.

2019-10-09 15:39:34 UTC  

People can live in them then.

2019-10-09 15:39:36 UTC  

All is fine.

2019-10-09 15:39:40 UTC  

Is it

2019-10-09 15:39:47 UTC  

@Nathan James 123 force is always less effective then incentives

2019-10-09 15:39:49 UTC  

Just tax the shit out of empty homes, Build more housing, stop paying tax payer money to private landlords, and end mass immigration

2019-10-09 15:39:54 UTC  

It's not rocket science

2019-10-09 15:39:57 UTC  

Force is the incentive @killerqwerty

2019-10-09 15:40:02 UTC  

I'll just go ask Venezuela how forcing the rich to sell up etc worked out for them
