Farming is not uneconomical
I'd convert to commercial
And keep it empty
So? @Eccles
joshu does your attitude change if we're talking about rich saudis/chinese/others buying up homes as investments?
Or nominate it as my office
No crafty
Who wants the country to be a sprawling city?
I'm not a fucking socialist
No green, just dead-buildings
Who wants to redistribute wealth from the rich people
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.*
It's fine, people will get them eventually!
We hope!!
Just build more!!!!
you could jus offer tax breaks for anyone constructing low cost high rises, more houses in less space.
You have to redistribute wealth from rich down eventually
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.
Or you could just force people to use those assets @killerqwerty
Simple.
You don't have to do it by taking their shit away forcefully
There are not seas of empty fields wasting money
That makes the wealthy leace
Then how will we? kek
Force will always be used
And good luck after that
So what? @Joshu
Jesus christ
Let them leave, kek
They can sell the homes, done.
People can live in them then.
All is fine.
Is it
@Nathan James 123 force is always less effective then incentives
Just tax the shit out of empty homes, Build more housing, stop paying tax payer money to private landlords, and end mass immigration
It's not rocket science
Force is the incentive @killerqwerty
I'll just go ask Venezuela how forcing the rich to sell up etc worked out for them
