    How about we stop letting people and corporations gobble up all the existing housing for their endless speculative bubbles?

      For sure. I agree with the idea of doing this provided that private companies assume all the risk and work to overcome all of the obstacles to doing this but at the same time we have to remember why we have to do this in the first place. Speculative investment should never have been allowed into the housing market in the first place and that’s why we’re here. That’s why nobody can afford homes. That’s why nobody can afford rent.
