Solution #3 - Greatly Expand Non-Profit, Limited-Profit, Cooperative and Government-Owned Social Housing

– Hard to Do in USA (apparently), Very Slow, but Eventually Effective and then Easy to Continue

The U.S. should greatly increase programs to incentivize non-profit, limited-profit, cooperative, and government-owned social housing, including community land trusts.

Europe has many different successful examples, including in Vienna. Outside of Europe, see Singapore.?

Despite all the successes in other countries, the U.S. has a history of incompetence at managing public housing… at least when the residents became predominantly Black. See Secret #17.

Hopefully, we’re beyond that today and we can now manage social housing as well as the best countries.
