[an orange character is speaking, smugly]
I vote far right because I hate immigrants who come to our country and do not adopt its culture
[from their brain, a thought bubble emerges which shows a sunny thai landscape, in which orange is chilling on a deck chair by the sea, drinking coconut juice and smiling, clearly enjoying life]
I dream of having enough money to move/retire to Thailand and never learn the language or adopt the culture
You hate immigrants because you’re far right
I hate my government for letting in over a 100k immigrants a year, while we have a housing shortage of 400k.
We are not the same.
Oh yeah, you are the same.
Housing is intentionally kept sparse to keep prices high, as it benefits both developers and the government. Not people, though.
Immigrants don’t change that math.
Do local authories (part of the government) raise funds through taxation?
Do central governments not make money through home sale transactions?
It benefits corrupt politicians, not the government itself. That’s why China has an abundance of empty housing - local authorities made bank through sales.
