Honest question: what do we even do? I'm not European but it seems like you can't talk about the "housing crisis" without having to specify whether you're talking about Europe, Canada, the US, etc.
I see suggestions to build more housing through taller buildings, but without any incentive to do that from people who care, what policies will realistically get passed to change anything?

- bondarchuk 3y agoHere in the Netherlands we used to have social housing built by the government and then rented out at reasonable rates, from like 50's - 90's. Now after a decade+ of right-ish government the housing associations are forced to sell off these houses and don't build a lot of new ones. But if we vote for the same parties as those who supported this policy back then, I don't see why we couldn't do it again.
