Housing Bubble 2: Return of the Ugly

There is one very important aspect that shouldn't be ignored about the fact at the end. Although it may be technically correct, it is almost certainly not geographically correct. If filling those homes requires a mass movement of people requiring even something as little a a couple of hour drive, is it really relevant?

Don't get me wrong, I hate corporate ownership of residential property, and I also think empty homes, especially if it's a second, third, fourth, etc., should result in some kind of tax penalty. I don't think using easily discounted facts is ultimately in our best interest when pushing for change to address these issues.
