You might not be aware of that, but there is what we call a “housing crisis” right now. There is not enough place to house everyone, and there are not enough construction sites to fix the problem rapidly considering the recent increase in population. It will take years to adjust. You can’t just make a bunch of apartments appear out of nowhere. Doesn’t matter the policy you apply to distribute them.
And about social housing, yeah, everybody likes that. It’s more a matter of government inefficiency rather than a lack of will from the population.

Stop relying on the for profit home building industry and just build them. Use the military if you must. It’s a crisis as you say, treat it like one.

It’s more complicated than that and you know it.

So build more. Yes, that takes time. So start now.

This is only difficult because we make it difficult.
