Hope he sticks to this and shuts the fuck up about foreign policy.
Better yet, stick to this AND take anti-imperialist line on foreign policy. But failing that just shut the fuck up about it.
Because this is good.
Wake me up when he passes legislation that permits nationalizing slumlord rentals if the landlords fail to adhere to the contracts and laws that they are bound to
Feels like that’s where he’s going with it to be honest. Publicise the worst buildings in the city, publicise their auction to the worst landlords in the city, publicise their failure to improve despite the tenants office continuing to crackdown and demand improvements.
Build up the case against them for complete and total failure. Call the buildings a serious danger, not just to the occupants but to the rest of the city itself.
Forcibly take the buildings at a rate worth the incredible number of problems they have and the immense negligence of the landlords running them. If they don’t want the buildings to be taken then the landlords can be fined for every single one of the thousands of different problems with the building that they are not meeting city codes with.
Build it up properly and the entire city will support it.
I really hope this is how it plays out.
