It could be clerical. Changing your last name due to marriage is a different process than changing your full name.

Loads of scammers change only their last names, so I don’t really buy that it’s that different. They should require names changed by marriage too if they want the purpose of this to be for tricking the public. If not, then I question how necessary it is in the first place. It’s not a big deal for Cis folks, but it is for Trans folks, so it should be reconsidered.

Like a lock on a freezer isn’t a giant red flag

Us workers don’t live on site like they do there. There were 800,000 workers living in dorms on site when those articles all came out. That doesn’t exist in the US. The suicide rate at the time there was lower than in every US State for comparison.

10% $0 to $11,000.

12% $11,001 to $44,725.

22% $44,726 to $95,375.

24% $95,376 to $182,100.

32% $182,101 to $231,250.

35% $231,251 to $578,125.

37% $578,126 or more.

If you make $579k, you don’t pay 37% of that. You pay the above rate for each range of dollars you earn. So everyone pays 10% on the first $11k they earn.

There’s also deductions including the standard deduction of $13,850 (so subtract that from what you earned)

Some good information: https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/taxes/federal-income-tax-brackets

Source on the 110k number? Because I remember reading something about 75k not that long ago and inflation couldn’t have been that bad could it?

Look at the overall investor share, it was on a downward trend after the crash, and is only up a little. It's been mostly consistent for over a decade.

You're ignoring the hundred other people with 300k that will getting money and now bidding against me. It's Supply and Demand.

There are so many people here ignorant to the basic principals of supply and demand. It’s starting to scare me how willful the ignorance is.

You’re taking it literally, they are taking it realistically. Literally yes everyone switching would do that; realistically that won’t happen, nowhere close. So it won’t work.

Activists almost always have terrible PR. BLM at least have a coherent point. Occupy Wallstreet was the dog catching cars of protests.

Progressively higher property tax for multiple homes seems like a good start.

That report was bs

Numbers don’t add up.

Here’s a source: https://www.housingwire.com/articles/no-wall-street-investors-havent-bought-44-of-homes-this-year/

You’re being against people with under 10 homes, which I agree is still a problem, but you’re not bidding against large corporations.

They say “you’re wrong” and mention something entirely unrelated.

You can mock me all you like. It isn’t going to allow you to buy a house.

Here’s a source btw https://www.housingwire.com/articles/no-wall-street-investors-havent-bought-44-of-homes-this-year/

No idea what all of you seem to think is going on.

You’re bidding against both, and increasing the amount of money people have also gives people who already own a home the opportunity to buy another one and get in on the investment those corporation are. All you’ll get is inflation and probably a crash leaving you owing more than the homes worth when it all comes tumbling down. Throwing money isn’t the solution. Building more multi-family buildings and legislating multi-home ownership including corporations is.

This is basic supply and demand. Please explain how I’m wrong and giving people more money would solve the problem.

To scam stupid people out of money? I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about, and I’m not sure you do either.

Think about it. If everyone has more money that means so do the other people bidding against you. It’s like the college tuition problem. Everyone can get student loans, so colleges have no incentive to keep costs reasonable. Giving college students more money doesn’t fix the problem of college being too expensive.

You’re kidding yourself if you think everyone having more money is going to do anything but increase bidding on housing right now though. I’m not blaming housing prices on people having money, I’m saying it’s not going to fix those underlying issues.
