It’s incoherent so I have no idea. They could also be asking why the government isn’t nationalized the way power plants are.
There is no news link, so that’s unlikely. But it also doesn’t specify what country they’re in or which government / level of government they’re talking about.
We prefer to privatize the gains, and socialize the losses. That way when the electric grid fails, the multibillion dollar corporate utility companies can be bailed out by their customers

Yep it’s not really the lack of housing here that is the problem. More so that landlords don’t want to sell since they make more money in the long term by renting.
And who builds them? Rich people. Who continue to act the way they do. It’s not as simple as just building more, the system needs to change completely.

Makes to much sense.

In Québec, power comes from Hydro-Quebec and is owned by the government.
Hundreds of people live in the streets while there is like 13’000 appartments on Airbnb.

I mean it’s not like a homeless person would buy it, if they were to decide to sell.
So, and this is a wild concept, why don’t we build more?

Because then we can have Airbnbs for tourists, and housing for workers as well?
