I agree. I still think regular peiple would view that as “the government stealing their property” though. For example i know a few people who buy places and fix them up to rent out. Are you saying they should get their properties taken away?
If you’re only referring to billionaires and corporations buying housing, i agree. But if any laws were put into place, we know how it always goes, it would only affect those regular Joe’s renting properties, and theyd further hate the government for too much regulation. I see no way to possibly stop the rich from buying all housing.

Treating housing as a commodity is part of the problem for sure. I believe all humans have a right to safe shelter. No one’s income should come before another person’s life.
That said,

This would be the practical way to do it anyway. Some guy that rents out a ski chalet isn’t commiting some terrible crime. It’s charging people to live in their own homes that’s wrong.
