We must get the people who have money to invest... to invest their money in a place that will stimulate the economy.
This tax break would create an incentive for these people to buy some of the excess housing that is on the market.
This incentive will back stop the housing market at the current level... and the increased demand will begin to move housing prices back up. Once the housing market is stabilized, the demand for new homes will increase which will start to put construction workers etc back to work!
Let's get this going!
