Reply to Maura Healey wants to solve the state’s housing crisis. Here’s step one. by _Hack_The_Planet_
All second residential properties owned by individuals or companies in MA should be taxed heavily to the point of them being unprofitable. Obviously more housing needs to be built, but at this point landlords of all sizes are exhibiting parasitic behavior that undercuts community development and real small businesses.

Protest your local zoning board — they’re filled with geriatric know-nothings who’ve created this hellscape for the rest of us.

A guy got shot in the head six times 20 ft from my place a few years back — nowhere is truly safe until we bring all of us into the collective fold of prosperity.

I’ve lived up the street from there for 10 years — the proposal is a good thing. Everyone deserves housing, and we’re only as strong as the neediest among us. Additionally, as a former public school teacher, I believe people need to stop using their kids as excuses to block this type of development — fairly presumptuous of them to assume another child’s parent or relative won’t benefit, which in turn helps the kid.
