Message | This is going to hurt the poorest families in this country. Its clear that PN favour the rich and powerful. |
Date | 20:23:58, September 18, 2017 CET | From | Partido Nacional | To | Debating the Social Housing Bill |
Message | Why? As we have outlined the policy of the state providing public housing was not financed in any budget proposal, so we do wonder what kind of houses were actually built. If the government aren't going to fund the social housing project then we might as well live it to the private sector, at least they are responsive to supply and demand. |

Message | Because your proposal means privatising public housing. That will lead to higher rents which those on low-incomes will not be able to afford. PN's proposal would lead to homelessness, financial struggles and cramped living conditions. |
