(6,324 posts)Because you don't actually have a clue how it works, how real estate works, and when pressed for how it would apply to real-world examples where renting is better you just say "See #2 we will fix that with legislation".
But you have no proposals how to fix it with legislation, and no ideas that could work, just the magic "we will let Congress fix it" as if that is actually an answer and not a complete cop-out when people tell you why this is a horribly stupid idea.
Its pretty clear from how naive you are about real estate transactions with your idea of people quickly buying a "share of a home" and such that you have never actually purchased a home or had dealings in real estate.
I know, I know "legislation will fix that problem with it being complicated to buy a share of a home" is your magic answer to any of the real-world problems with this nutty plan. In the real world you can't just say "legislation will fix that" without actually proposing what that legislation says and does with some specificity and expect to be taken seriously.
So, lets see your SPECIFIC proposals for legislation that will be passed to make your scheme work.
Not just generalizations like "tax credits" "gradualizatioon" that are meaningless without details but actual proposals with some specificity. Actual proposals for how the law would look and read that enables your plan to work
If you don't have that, and you have no idea what that would look like, then you don't actually have a valid proposal- you just have what looks like sour grapes over a bad landlord and/or jealousy pushing you to look for legislation that affects everyone to fix your specific situation.
