I don't think you understand how it works. The government is going to TAX you to throw out that more money. It's not just throwing out a blanket amount of money from thin air.

Surely giving people $25k to buy a house won't cause the price of housing to increase. Right?

Why isn't anyone picking up on this? THIS is all you need to know.

Every time the government adds money to something, that something goes up by the amount they inject.

I don't see how the first generation of home buyers bit would work.

Rich parents always rented: you get help as 1st gen.
Poor parents managed to "buy" a home in 2006 and then lost it in 2007 (happened to a lot of people): no help for you.
Screw nature; my body will do what I DAMN WELL tell it to do!

The only dangerous thing about an exercise is the person doing it.

They had the technology to rebuild me. They made me better, stronger, faster……

Much rather to see my TAX contribution go to programs like Housing 4 Americans, HealthCARE 4 Americans, and Education 4 Americans than to be paying only HealthCare and Cancun Holidays for RepubliCON Leaders and/or Foreign WAR Profiteering

So far, Harris has proposed

-helicopter money for homebuyers
-tax cuts while govt spending is already 30% higher than income.
-price controls on food

I'm really open ears to both sides of the discussion. So far all responses have been 'feelings' based.

I still think that phucker wants tax cuts, which is just wrong-headed in this budgetary environment, but he's already points ahead vs Kamala.

Tax paying individuals and families deserve the right to have the basic necessities. I'd much rather American citizens than to have homeless bums and migrants in my neighborhoods.
You're just simply a retard that looks at the easiest solution: take from others to give to others. There's plenty of options (like what I posted in post 7) to keep college costs down for people. As far as housing, there's plenty of solutions rather than just taking a lump sum from tax paying citizens.

First, COMPLETELY stop any non citizen from owning residential property. This includes foreign investment firms and foreign non citizen individuals that currently are allowed to purchase residential property.

(the following will make a ton of righties mad) but bar any domestic investment firms from owning single family homes. Single family homes should not be for profit. Let them do what they want with multiple unit condos etc. This would get some firms out of the single family home and into the multiple housing arena which would have the direct benefit of creating more affordable housing units.

Increase the capital gains period from 2 years to 5 years (except in the scenarios of career relocation and health deterioration). This would curb a significant amount of flippers.

Then grandfather the people in that paid for their own homes and college. Don't require them to pay for others since they didn't get handouts and already paid their way. Then, you'll just have a bunch of perpetual lefties passing money between each other while not solving anything.

The solution isn't exactly take from others, give to others. Building more homes doesn't do that.

But keeping families from being dirt poor e.a. rentcels, puts less strain on the system. If homes were more affordable, do you think we'd be having this conversation? Do you think a $25k fund from tax payers would be needed?

But alas, we're at this point and something needs to be done, or else more strain on tax payers.


Your other points I 100% agree with and I've known for the longest firms like Black Rock were buying up single family homes.

You said the housing market was going to burn down

Guess you have no idea what you’re talking about



Just FYI, if people who previously could not afford to enter the market are getting an opportunity to get a $25k down payment, this causes prices rises much greater than $25k
