Tak pan Kunc mimo jine rika i to, ze prazdne byty neexistuji. Pritom vim o lidech, kteri si z ruznych duvodu prazdne byty drzi, protoze se jim to vyplati. Jeden takovy byt ma i moje vzdalenejsi rodina. 🙃

A ano, pokud se neco v mym zivote rapidne nezmeni, mozna to tak casem budu delat taky.

To dostane víc bytů k vlastnímu bydlení na trh a to potlačí na ceny, a v důsledku ubude poptávky na nájemním trhu.

Takže není to jak by si představoval pan Kunc, ale nebude to ani samospásné jak si představuje levice, v prvé řadě ty byty v Praze musíme postavit. Daň řeší tak Ostravu a Most.
