Maybe we should institute a tax on underutilized land in metro areas.

I think a simple law that if there is a building, it must be in a repaired state.

In St. Louis a person opened large portions of the city where they’ve let the holes decay.

He should have to keep them in a proper upkeep or tear them down.

Fuck anyone that uses money to buy things and let them rot. That's a purposefully broad statement.

I agree. I wish I could find an article on this guy but he is just hoarding and letting it rot. Has something to do with taxes.
