bigkev - why not? Given that we have the 2nd most expensive housing in the world - maybe we need to get real about this.

Why not use shipping containers weld a couple together much less that the houses above,and the way some people look after state houses is appalling,$168,000 plus section etc etc,Why not just give a poor person the deposit for a state house,and have the buyer pay it off at reasonable rent,ass there are so many houses that are empty around the country,at least they would get some revenue out of them.
