Net support for making housing more affordable by subsidizing demand: +42%
@besttrousers the support for tariffs and immigration bans is what really gets to me
@besttrousers Voter economic illiteracy is the root of much poor policy
@besttrousers @CNLiberalism i just need to...subsidize demand.
@besttrousers That's a Biden policy and it's a terrible idea that would, in fact, increase prices. Which I assume is what you're saying.
@besttrousers Question: if we replaced the mortgage interest deduction with the $10,000 tax credit for first time homebuyers, would that be better or worse than the current system?
@besttrousers Probably mostly the same 47% who oppose enforcing immigration law. "We want open borders, cheap housing, and a pony"
@besttrousers @CNLiberalism The ultimate winning formula: restrict supply/subsidize demand. Everyone wins!
@besttrousers Isn’t housing demand equal to 1 unit per household? Subsidies for first time *buyers* doesn’t change demand, just how it manifests in markets.
