Comment on Why limit immigration?

  Fun fact! My coworker pays more in rent for his apartment than I do on the mortgage of my house. Most often this is true.

  I’m getting a once over by the bank, he’s getting done once over by the bank and again by his landlord, and they might not ever be different.

  So how is an immigrant supposed to thrive when a foreign investment firm is profiting off them twice?

  Subsidize affordable housing, tax wholesale & foreign landlords out of existence. It’s simple.
