Essential housing as nothing but a commodity - read it and weep.
No seriously, we should all be weeping at how we deny people affordable accommodation just so a handful of people can make 10% more profit for that year. It's disgraceful and yet it's reality. Housing is a right, the "market" isn't serving the needs of people it's serving the needs of investors. So the only option left is for Government to step in, since housing is now unaffordable for most of the lower socio-economic class and increasingly so even for many in the middle socio-economic class. Supply & demand principles are meaningless when you manipulate the market to this extent.
