Yes, as long as it does not interfere with the housing market, and is not costly for taxpayers.
@B3GQLSG3wks3W
The government should build more public housing, that is high density and affordable. it will create jobs and slow the rising of housing prices
@B3G9BMS3wks3W
Yes, but introduce a bar of quality that developers must reach. So that new housing is also livable and well made housing that will last for decades
@B33879H1mo1MO
Yes, as long as the funds are diverted from already existing taxpayer-funded programs so there's no tax increase
@B2YKDVR1mo1MO
No, there should be limits on investment properties and more regulations on rental properties to ensure the housing that already exists can be utilised
@B2QFZL62mos2MO
No, the government should be building government owned housing for low income households, to compete with the private market
@9ZM933G4mos4MO
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.
@9QS3S9L9mos9MO
Yes, but fund it through other ways rather than income tax alone.
