        All of that is currently available but it doesnt meet the need. As far as government supplied housing, that is a disaster at best.

          You asked what other options there were, and I provided them.

          We don’t need landlords, we can safely eat them and be just OK 👌

            Who then is going to provide housing at a supply that is sufficient?

              You’re confused: landlords don’t provide housing, contractors do.

                    So then the banks will own the house, how is that any better? I don t know what a community union is.
