https://nos.nl/l/2613287
“De verschillen tussen rijke en minder rijke mensen in Nederland blijven steeds groter worden en het belastingstelsel vermindert deze ontwikkeling niet. Soms leidt het er zelfs toe dat de verschillen groter worden. Die waarschuwing geeft het Centraal Planbureau (CPB) aan de regering.”

#Fascism is the chosen means by which they secure and preserve those gains.

#Vienna’s successful #SocialHousing model prioritizes human needs over profits, with tenant protections, #ProgressiveTaxation & strong regulations. Half of city's residents live in subsidized #housing, creating affordable competition.
In the US, the private market often fails low-income renters, with #homelessness & housing insecurity widespread.
