I loved her dynamic with Luther as well.

Shit, I wanna watch me some Luther now.

This was something I was baffled with I first visited Philly.

I'm from Seattle and we have unbagged recycling as well, but our bins have lids that swing open. (https://www.seattle.gov/images/Departments/SPU/Services/Recycling/Recycle_Right_Carts_Logo.jpg)

This keeps the birds/wind from moving things around, while still keeping it easy to open. I never understood why this approach wasn't used in many areas of the east coast.

Because not everyone wants to own/can own?

If there aren't any rental properties, people would have to buy or be homeless. And if everyone is only allowed one property, there would not be any rentals.

It would really suck for new immigrants and those struggling.

I don't get what you aren't understanding here.

How would supply go up for rental houses? If everyone was only allowed one house, it would mean there are no rental houses available.

What if I'm a family of five who just moved to an area but don't want to buy a place just yet?

Or someone who just wants a small townhouse to rent and not own?

Or a single mother, recently divorced, who doesn't have the down payment for a house.

On the right track, but now let's allow mixed use.

We should model after Japan where you can business and residential are almost always allowed together. If you own the land and want to sell just 1000 sqft of it, go ahead. If the market wants it, someone will buy it and do something with it.

You often get some cool architecture this way as well. People designing places based on the land instead of cookie cutter houses all built at once.

This is actually an issue and shouldnt be down voted.

Ballard has had to put in a poop tank due to having more poo than it can move.

Seattle will need to build more waste treatment plants for denser living.

Electricity and water is no issue though.

Isn't letting the person decide what you do with your land like... Peak capitalism?

Less government, more freedom?

Bad idea.

There are a lot of families who can't afford (even if the prices dropped) or don't want to own a home.

The majority of houses (not apartments) rented out are by every day people, not corporations. If we got rid of that, you would have a group of people who would not have a place or crammed into apartments.

Many families would get fucked with this.
