Solving this ongoing homelessness crisis is probably never going to happen because of the bigger problem of having shithouse politicians on both sides of the very narrow political divide. But there might be one or two things that they could look at doing differently from the current norm..
As we've read from the ABS report earlier in the thread before spastic boy started harping on about his anti-hero, the billionaire meanie, Elon Musk, immigration into Australia is at record levels.
So firstly I'd look at Australia's immigration policy.The government has been deliberately pursuing mass economic immigration with complete disregard for its catastrophic impacts on access to housing for hundreds of thousands of Australians. And as new arrivals into Australia are more likely to move to the big cities this such as Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, this tends to increases demand for scarce urban housing.....
Rather than just having an immigration for immigrations sake policy, maybe the government should articulate the appropriate level of migration intake given its economic, budgetary and social benefits.
And while the Guardian reading Soyboy hipsters won't like it, I believe restraining immigration for a year or more would give society the breathing space to attack and reduce the homeless situation and stop rising rental costs....
