    Homes should not appreciate in value, and we need, as a society, to stop viewing home ownership as “nest eggs” and wealth-building tools.

    If housing value constantly goes up, housing prices are constantly going up. Homes cannot be a method of building wealth and also be affordable to people.

    Raising taxes on landlords raises the rent.
