Something I am working thru: What if there was a way to massively overhaul section 8 so that it didn’t prop up the (broken) private market or erode tenants’ rights? Then it would just be cash for housing, which is basically an unequivocally good thing?
or they could *actually be* the public sector in a more structural way than they are right now - municipal trust owns the land / bdgs - contracts to whoever (NFP?) to manage hsg - strong tenant unions / local elections --> public control / democracy over assets
