Yes, as long as it does not interfere with the housing market, and is not costly for taxpayers.
@B33879H2 days2D
Yes, as long as the funds are diverted from already existing taxpayer-funded programs so there's no tax increase
@B2YKDVR6 days6D
No, there should be limits on investment properties and more regulations on rental properties to ensure the housing that already exists can be utilised
@B2QFZL63wks3W
No, the government should be building government owned housing for low income households, to compete with the private market
@9ZM933G3mos3MO
The government should be building affordable housing. What is this incentivize the construction of?
Are you saying you no longer build public housing and the reason we are facing this mess is because government didnt incentivize enough builders/companies to take up the plight for building public housing? Thats exactly what this question seems to suggest when also paired up with the state of our country right now.
@9QS3S9L8mos8MO
Yes, but fund it through other ways rather than income tax alone.
@9PSLVTY8mos8MO
Yes, as long as it is not costly for taxpayers, and if it does not interfere with the housing market.
@9MQ83P29mos9MO
Money is better spent on encouraging people to work, to able to afford their own housing. Also, property and rent prices should be decreased.
