Dozens of state are doing what? Not allowing people to leave their homes empty, forcing them to rent their homes when not there? Or giving residents tax breaks? And what happens if there aren't enough people interested in renting your home when you are not there? What then? I just can't imagine the infrastructure of our rural area can accommodate a year round population like we have in the summer if that many people were even interested in doing it. And this is supposed to help ease the shortness of rentals? Are they thinking about how the working class looking for rentals can even pay the HEATING bill for most of these homes? Probably the next step is to allow use of your home rent free and pay all the expenses. After that people that occupy their homes year round would be forced to have families to live with them, share their house with them. And if island homes need to be rented, how are they going to get on and off the islands? Maybe free boat service in the summer, ice boats in the winter? Air boats when no ice? Free to them the renters of course.
Please excuse the rant, the whole thing just seems to be so ridiculous that thoughts fly out of my head with not a lot of organization.
