Yeah, but you're a fucking idiot.
There's a housing crisis for the simple reason that the construction industry owners don't WANT to build houses because it's 'not profitable enough at present.' There are hundreds of sites in the UK that HAVE planning permiission, that won't see a single house built until the property developers think they'll get a good enough deal. And that's WITHOUT going into all the 'brownfield' sites that could be developed, but won't. or the fact that 'affordable' housing is seen by the powers that be as something to be avoided at all costs.
