How Residential Patterns Condition Human Brain Structure and Political Disposition
Individuals do not vote for the right out of an inherent preference for conservative policies. Rather, the acquisition of one's own home (owner-occupied real estate) inevitably transforms one into a conservative, driven by the imperative to protect assets. Conversely, the absence of property ownership fosters a desire for redistribution, thereby inclining individuals towards progressivism.
1. The Comprehensive Real Estate Tax and Class Warfare
Politicians are acutely aware that preventing monthly/jeonse tenants from ever acquiring homeownership is crucial for maintaining their entrenched progressive voter base. Ostensibly framed as measures for the common people, excessive rental housing legislation (the 'three rental laws') or punitive tax burdens (such as the Comprehensive Real Estate Tax) are, in reality, sophisticated political engineering. Their true function is to kick away the ladder of upward mobility, thereby confining the populace indefinitely as perpetual tenants and loyal leftist constituents.
