I'd get behind that, but it won't happen at this point.

I would like to see abolishment of speculative property ownership. You either use it, or it gets given to someone else.

You can't hold it and wait for the price to go up. You get a year, maybe two, and then it becomes public domain to anyone that will use it.

I find it absurd that people are born and indoctrinated to believe that because someone else says they own this bit of land that they've never used, no one else can use it.

People are literally born homeless. Their parents may have a home, and they may let their children use it, but they are born without anywhere they can legally be without someone else's permission.

Sounds like a reasonable policy, yet there's a loophole. What would prevent owners from trading on paper their goods so that they can remain empty under a different name? Or from lending a huge space to a single person so that the space isn't technically empty although it could house 10-100 times as many people?

Love that argument. I've never seen it that way before, but that makes perfect sense!
