    What if we make it illegal to own more than 2 residential properties. Yes, 2. Why 2? Because it won’t pull votes away from assholes with a summer house.

    AND let’s make it illegal for corporate entities to own livable units, and force them to sell via eminent domain within 180 days.

        No, you can still own ONE hotel. The reason why hotel prices are so high in the US is because of the Patel Cartel.

            They own a bunch of chain hotels (Best Western?), and fix prices. The US has among the highest rates for hotels in the developed world. I recently went to Germany and for the same price I got 4 star amenities for what I’d pay for a very basic motel.
