Actual take: Tax breaks for young people, not seniors
Property tax relief should go to people under 35, not retirees sitting on 28 percent of the nation's large homes while millennials with kids own 16 percent.
Any age-gated incentive should explicitly exclude seniors. That's the opposite of what we do, which tells you everything about whose interests actually run the show.
.@kylascan: Empty nesters own about 28 percent of large homes in the U.S. Millennials with children own about 16 percent.
Someone finally says the quiet part out loud: we're subsidizing property wealth for the elderly while younger generations get priced out of homeownership.
