β‘οΈπ π¦πΊ NEW - Experts in Australia are pushing for a new tax on spare bedrooms as a solution to the nationβs deepening housing crisis.
They argue that too many homes have more bedrooms than residents, creating a mismatch in housing supply.
By taxing unused rooms, they believe it would pressure people to downsize and free up more appropriately sized homes for others.

Might be time to go back to taxing windows
The World Economic Forum was talking about people living in "Pods" in the near future. They don't actually want people owning their own homes just renting from their companies... Taxing people out of the homes they own sounds like something they would push.
Experts are fucking retarded
The mainstream media who makes shit up and claims it came from experts are retarded, and anyone who believes them without fact checking (like you are) is even more retarded.
Nice one
