9d 6h ago in newzealand@lemmy.nz from www.salvationarmy.org.nzI was able to update the title! You were right; after looking at it with the image and blurb that were added.
Do you mean it's a terrible title for people that don't read?
The Salvation Army’s second six-monthly survey of housing support providers, along with other data related to homelessness, reveals alarming trends: Homelessness is increasing across nearly all communities, with no area reporting a decline. Access to emergency housing is becoming increasingly restricted, with a 386% rise since August 2024 in Ministry of Social Development (MSD) rejections citing that people had ‘contributed to their own homelessness’.

1800s is a bit vague: Progress and Poverty was late 1800s, like 1890. Georgism was probably the least bad tax until AI happened. Now a well architected wealth tax is probably the thing that will endure.
Your thing is confusing until you get to:
we need to look at buying a house as locking in your cost of living, rather than an investment that only ever goes up.
We should not tax productive things; like income and GST. We should tax unproductive things, like sitting on property extracting rent. The entire system is bass-akwards for facilitating a real economy. "Old people get all the young people's value" is great until it breaks and everyone leaves. Then we're left with a bunch of "rich" old people and no young talent.
There needs to be a serious shake up. This might be why TOP is polling above 5% now...
