#AlanKohler is on board with Govt doing the job of building #SocialHousing as it cuts through a number of walls that seem intent on making sure Australia will never have enough houses to meet the needs of its population at an affordable cost/price.

“Like the NDIS (and child care), housing affordability is unsustainable and can't be left to be a by-product of monetary policy, the productivity and profitability of the building industry and the zoning vagaries of local councils.

And as with the NDIS (and child care), intergenerational fairness requires a radical solution: the government could do worse than going back to building some houses.” (Source: ABC News)
