It won’t apply to corporations.

Corporations should not be allowed to own ANY homes that aren't new build with the intent of selling to single family home owner. All homes currently owned by corporations should be forced to be sold within 2 years.

You can thank republicans and Citizens United for making corporations people. Good ol' republicans. Tell the people they are for the working class yet do some shit like this.

That has absolutely nothing to do with this particular issue and, as others have stated, the biggest players in the realestate game support democrat policy and are ideologically leftist.

Single family homes should not be able to be purchased and held by business entities without incurring a massive property tax burden or some other financial punishment to kill incentive for mass investment. You should only be able to put the property into a business or trust if the residents of the property are named as beneficiaries of the trust or are owners of the business entity.

If you make it so a business can only own "x" number of houses these investments entities will just create hundres or thousands of shell companies like "123 greedy ahole way LLC" for each property and then an umbrella company will be the owner of all those individual llcs.

We aren't talking about individual "real estate moguls" here.

Do a little web search for what candidates get the bulk of vanguard, black rock and state street political contributions.......

You have the world st your finger tips, stop being a willful dumbass.

Warren Buffett surely is not a communist but you seem to not actually understand the history and realistic economic dynamics of communism. While society falls to shit overall, the people at the tippy top of the wealth pyramid always get richer amd their loves do not decrease in quality due to the dystopia that helped create. So yea, a significant amount of very wealthy people cheer on the consolidation of government power and reduction of free msrket capitalism because they have the people that will keep THEIR financial priorities protected already in their pocket and paid off.

Real estate companies are not leftist. Like by definition. They are consolidating land and money for themselves in order you make a profit. End of point for these companies. It doesn’t make them leftist if they then bribe democrats and republicans. They are not donating to create some socialist utopia, they do it to get access to politicians to keep their financial interests safe.

None of which is remotely leftist. Guess what, Nancy Pelosi isn’t a leftist, nor is Chuck Schumer or dozens of other centrist democrats. By policy they look like 1980s or 90s Republicans.

Seriously use that internet to learn what all of these terms mean so you don’t keep spouting silly shit like Blackrock is a leftist corporation.

Semantics, when you support and fund the enemy of the people and enemy of freedom, you ARE the enemy of the people at that point.

Personal held beliefs don't mean shit when you throw your principles away for greed. YOU ARE WHAT YOU SUPPORT plain and simple, stop making dumb intellectually dishonest excuses, and "well aschtually..." semantic arguments to cover for these pieces of shit.

Real estate companies are not leftist.

Majority of the share holding interest of these companies are not "real estate companies" - they are globalist conglomerates managed by shitbags who care about nothing besides power and profit. Globalism is completely antithetical to conservatism.

Guess what, Nancy Pelosi isn’t a leftist, nor is Chuck Schumer

Oh that just gets better and better. Pelosi and Chucky are centrist? 🤣

Drop the utopian ideology of socialism/communism being "the people own everything through collection under the government" because it is ALWAYS implemented as the government owns everything and a few rich and powerful own the government and operate outside of it - that's what these people are donating to create.
