@snarkyjarky @xpartycoalition @denise_dewald People moved to larger houses for a variety of reasons, and some wealthier people bought second houses for their own use (not to rent). That contributed to the shortage but the shortage has been ongoing for years.
Corps buy houses to rent. They don't sit empty.
@snarkyjarky @xpartycoalition @denise_dewald 人们出于各种原因搬到更大的房子里，一些更富有的人购买了第二套房子供自己使用（而不是出租）。这导致了短缺，但短缺已持续多年。
军团买房出租。他们不会空着。
@snarkyjarky @xpartycoalition @denise_dewald You're obsessed with a shell game which is a huge distraction from the main event. People fluid between the rental and owner market drive up BOTH. What is driving up the prices AND the rents AND attracting investors, is a the lack of building.
@snarkyjarky @xpartycoalition @denise_dewald 你沉迷于一场空壳游戏，这极大地分散了主赛事的注意力。在租赁市场和业主市场之间流动的人推动了两者的上涨。是什么推高了价格和租金并吸引了投资者，是缺乏建筑。
@snarkyjarky @xpartycoalition @denise_dewald AirBNB I agree with. It's definitely harmful to housing, although it does boost the local tourism/travel-linked economy and jobs, so overall harms/benefits are harder to parse out.
@snarkyjarky @xpartycoalition @denise_dewald AirBNB 我同意。它肯定对住房有害，尽管它确实促进了当地的旅游/旅行相关经济和就业，因此整体的危害/好处更难分析。
@snarkyjarky @xpartycoalition @denise_dewald The latter is not true. Poorer people don't have down payments, nor financial stability to qualify for lending standards that are tougher than renting.
As for the former, it doesn't particularly help, but the issue is a distraction/scapegoating, from the real problem of building
@snarkyjarky @xpartycoalition @denise_dewald 后者不是真的。较贫穷的人没有首付，也没有财务稳定性来获得比租房更严格的贷款标准。
至于前者，它并没有特别的帮助，但问题是从真正的建筑问题中分心/替罪羊
@snarkyjarky @xpartycoalition @denise_dewald What's hurting the poor is lack of affordability. And for that matter, poor are usually renters, so buying houses TO RENT THEM OUT increases the supply of rental units, probably helps the poor on the margin. But still, everyone is fucked if there isn't enough building.
@snarkyjarky @xpartycoalition @denise_dewald 伤害穷人的是缺乏负担能力。就此而言，穷人通常是租房者，因此购买房屋将其出租会增加出租单位的供应，可能会帮助穷人。但是，如果没有足够的建筑，每个人都会被搞砸。
@xpartycoalition @denise_dewald It's really not in society's interest to have housing affordability spiral farther and farther out of reach for anyone without inherited wealth, even if it might be for one community to do so, but that's what is happening. Growing population without growing housing supply = doom.
@xpartycoalition @denise_dewald 对于没有继承财富的任何人来说，住房负担能力越来越难以承受，这确实不符合社会利益，即使可能是一个社区这样做，但这就是正在发生的事情。人口增长但住房供应不增长=厄运。
@xpartycoalition @denise_dewald As you said, reform local control of zoning. There's nothing wrong with the concept of zoning per se, but when every individual community wants to opt itself out of new housing and expect it to be built somewhere else, it becomes mutual suicide.
@xpartycoalition @denise_dewald 正如你所说，改革分区的地方控制。分区的概念本身并没有错，但是当每个社区都希望自己退出新住房并期望将其建造在其他地方时，它就变成了相互自杀。
@xpartycoalition @denise_dewald And, I think, you truly do know the solution (only solution), you just don't like to confront it, because it's very difficult and messy. But so is the alternative, so pick your poison.
@xpartycoalition @denise_dewald 而且，我认为，您确实知道解决方案（仅解决方案），您只是不喜欢面对它，因为它非常困难且混乱。但另一种选择也是如此，所以选择你的毒药。
@xpartycoalition @denise_dewald There is only one problem here, and you've identified it. Like I said, kick out the corps and it's still unaffordable.
Resorting to the timeless trope of scapegoating speculators, and that's what it is, won't solve the supply/demand imbalance.
@xpartycoalition @denise_dewald 这里只有一个问题，你已经发现了。就像我说的，踢出军团，它仍然负担不起。
诉诸永远的替罪羊投机者的比喻，就是这样，不会解决供需失衡的问题。
@denise_dewald They're only buying because of the chronic housing shortage making it an excessively appreciating asset (which destroys affordability for working people even if corps don't buy them up).
Build more housing and the corps lose interest.
@denise_dewald 他们只是因为长期的住房短缺而购买，这使其成为一种过度升值的资产（即使军团不购买，这也会破坏劳动人民的负担能力）。
建造更多房屋，军团失去兴趣。
