Why? Because apparently they need some more incentive to keep units occupied. Also, even though a property might be vacant, there's still imputed rental income there. Its owner is just receiving it in the form of enjoying the unit for himself instead of receiving an actual rent check from a tenant. That imputed rent ought to be taxed like any other income.

Not to be a downer, but how does this fit into personalfinance? Like at all?... I mean, I agree with the point but this belongs in politics or something.

Yeah, this post should be removed.

I'm glad to find this comment here. I was about to unsubscribe because I'm here for personal finance; not tax policy debate or politics.

Now if a policy like that did come out and the article helped to navigate or take advantage of it as an individual, then I would be interested.
