It's crazy that our government just removed taxes for new apartment buildings, making it even more profitable for these corporations. I know we need to do something about the housing crisis but this just doesn't seem right at all...

It encourages the construction of more purpose built rental housing. It's just one step in lowering the cost of housing.

Yeah I totally understand the idea. And I hope it helps us have more housing. But it sucks to know that it might also make it easier for more slum lords to exist.
