social housing
Yeah, we could do a Castro and just nationalise all rentals, in theory. Growing a government department that plays the role of every landlord at once would be a big project, though, and of course it's not politically viable at the moment. And we'd still have a housing shortage.
Not public housing, social housing. We could seed self-owning housing coops.
Same problem as with getting a mortgage, then. A lot of people don't have the money to start or buy into such a thing.
