@ClimateWarrior7 Now do this math for the annual Federal budget deficit ($2-3 trillion)

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@mehdirhasan Yet the Fed Govt manages to overspend by $2-3 trillion every year. Thats $6-8 billion overspent daily. But yeah let’s deflect and talk about Musk.

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@hashjenni You know we have an annual Federal budget deficit of $2-3 trillion right? Take Musk’s trillion now what.

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@RockChartrand @NathanJRobinson 100%. Also this is a completely made up number based on bs assumptions.

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@ZaidJilani Far from the most subsidized (I would say “invested in”) companies out there. Do you hold the same ire for big pharma? Boeing? Companies getting far more have made their owners much less.

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@RoKhanna It’s not a difference! The role of govt is to make sure that the spending of capital making Americans prosperous is done in a way that healthcare and education exists well. We can argue about how it does it but step 1 is getting that capital invested!

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@SenWarren Annual Federal budget deficit is twice that - how about starting there? If you take all Elon’s money what have you solved?

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@bourscheid The Federal government overspends by $2-3 trillion annually but yeah you’d somehow solve everything if only you had a trillion. Why is your ire against those that make the $ instead of those that waste it?

@NFLMemes Cruel

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@Wilson__Valdez Dunkin’ would like to dispute your assessment. (And seriously, how out of touch are you??)

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@CompletedStreet Yeah we definitely don’t want the neighbor kids playing together.

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@FreddyLA7 Destin???

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@CompletedStreet These Europeans are very much currently enjoying the former: @FreddyLA7

@willjust_ @CompletedStreet Bc the numbers don’t work. Costs exceed potential returns. You need millions up front for development before you see a dime back and need lenders & investors. Construction costs, interest rates, land costs, etc etc. Much safer less risky returns elsewhere.

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@willjust_ @CompletedStreet Still wrong. Again, take a RE finance course if you want to get this right.

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@willjust_ @CompletedStreet There are 122k vacant lots in Detroit - 80% are owned by the DLBA, a public authority. You think they aren’t selling bc the DLBA is freeloading? There’s empty fully permitted multi family lots on the market in Boston - and they aren’t selling bc of taxes? They’re on the market!

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@willjust_ @CompletedStreet Are you stupid? If they build they get revenue. The revenue pays the taxes (and other things…like profit!). That’s why land gets developed- for the revenue! If there’s no revenue opportunity it stays vacant. This is basic stuff buddy.

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@willjust_ @CompletedStreet Owners don’t develop vacant lots bc the structure that doesn’t exist on that vacant lot depreciates in value? Huh?

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@willjust_ @CompletedStreet It’s irrelevant to a property value or development potential discussion. Can you sell your house but not the land it sits on? No.

[Rob Shaw @tillyhazel]

@willjust_ @CompletedStreet Uh, no. Sounds like you need to join @CompletedStreet at those real estate classes.
