Mainstream housing policy debates are about tweaks + nudges. We need a wholesale reconstruction of the system. The levels of suffering are insane; and housing inequality is a massive engine of racial inequality, and a driver of climate breakdown. We need so. much. change.
Stop listening to the experts who are selling baby steps + gradualism. Listen to the tenants who are sick and tired of needless misery, and who are fighting their asses off to #cancelrent during this crisis, and a #homesguarantee policy framework overall. https://homesguarantee.com
