    Are you saying there should only be owning housing? What do the people that can’t afford a house or flat do? Is it entirely the states job to build housing then and give housing away?

      Are you saying there should only be owning housing?

      Isn’t this the world right now? Even you rent your landlord owns the house you rent.

      What do the people that can’t afford a house or flat do?

      Part of the reason people can’t afford a house is because of landlords. If housing would be more affordable more people could afford houses.

      Is it entirely the states job to build housing then and give housing away?

      Not entirely, but where I live the state has built social housing for people who couldn’t even afford to rent a house. The state owns the house, but they’re not trying to extract profits from the people living there. The state is simply giving them a roof because otherwise those people would live on the street. I see nothing wrong with that.

        It’s the opposite. I asked whether they were saying there should not be any renting, only owning.
