[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why they needed this. This will keep seniors in their homes for longer. As anyone who has tried to buy a house recently knows, inventory is really low. Now seniors will try to stay in their too-large homes, while school budgets are cut and families struggle.

I say to repeal this deduction![/quote]

Word just can not express the disgust I feel for you right now[/quote]

I work as an urban planner and trying to keep one senior in a 3k sq ft house is actually horrible Plannin and use of resources. Family sized housing is critically short supply in DC. One person living In two rooms of a row house is wasteful. It's a normal cycle of housing we learned in first semester Housing Policy.  DC should incentive shared senior housing (golden girls) or more high rise apartments that cater to seniors.  No I don't hate old people but most folks I meet who are obsessed with "aging in place" are nutty and have no idea how cycles of housing should work to maintain appropriate levels of supply and demand.[/quote]

Thank you.

Old people don't need a tax break which keeps them in giant houses. [/quote]
