Message | "Allows for the private ownership of homes instead of government ownership. As houses are private property they should remain free from government regulations so long as these regulations are not needed." - The state _only_ provides housing to the worst off in society. The vast majortiy of people live in private accommodation. |

Message | Your bill descriptor seems to give the false impression that private homes do not exist in this Country rather than the actual position that has private homes as the primary means of housing our population. State housing is only provided to those people who are on low incomes and that can't afford the rents charged by private holders. |
