Financing Human Dignity

UWCityHall

Financing Human Dignity explores local taxes on global speculators, using lessons learned from fighting foreclosures in Baltimore.  Transfer taxes and recordation fees are assessed on subsidiaires of these speculative funds that do their dirty work.  The fact sheet directs attention to those subsidiaries, and proposes tax increases on these actors, targeting the tax revenue to deeply affordable housing.
