Rather than banning that just tax the shit out of people who have multiple homes
I'd even be willing to let someone have their lake/hunting cabin/whatever and not tax too much but people are greedy and we're far past that point. Once you start accumulating 5-10 homes, taking them off the market for other buyers, the taxes should increase exponentially.
We cAn tax them 1 home for every excess home and donate that home to a homeless person
You could just build housing with the revenue from taxing it
We don't have a lack of housing. We have a distribution problem. We can't just build infinitely, we need to redistribute.
The Welsh did that (or just some Welsh councils?), pretty sure it was very popular among the people actually living in the area.
