  2. I presume it ran out of other people's money.

  3. <Canada & NZ have atleast banned foreigners buying properties,> Not really as in Canada's case, students and refugees are exempt from the ban.

  4. They didn't want a civil war or to end up like Zimbabwe.

  5. Ditto for Hong Kong, the city with the world's highest rent.

  6.  @Carlos-kk4nw  Because Canada drank the feminist and Marxist Kool-Aid.

  7. You're right. And you can also add ignorance, envy and entitlement. A lot of people are just plain lousy with managing what they have yet wonder why they're constantly in need. That one person having more than they can use in a lifetime is only a problem to those suffering from a major case of envy, because he isn't even close to being the problem.

  8. But 3rd-worlders are not as weak and entitled as 1st-worlders are. Welfare and too much prosperity made the 1st world complacent.

  9. Government are a reflection of humanity that elected them. Most of humanity is ignorant, corrupt and greedy.

  10.  @CraigTheBrute-pf8zh  It as in the government.

  11. <selling off social and public housing> Because of government mismanagement and underinvestment. Can't rely on subsidies forever to make up for all the money lost from undercharging tenants.

  12. Greed destroyed nothing. It's not Sydney's fault millions are happy to go there and are willing/able to pay higher prices just for the privilege to live there.

  13.  @ColinFreeman-kh9us  Coming from someone who loves envy and entitlement, you're dismissed.

  14. Welcome to the big city.

  15. Better than the equality Moldova has.

  16. <Investors do not care about the people or the country, just the money.> And rightfully so. They're not humanitarians. <In the US, 60% to 80% less low income housing has been built since the 1980s. It is not profitable. > And they're crime and poverty-ridden slums.

  17. Australia has plenty of land. Just unfit for inhabitation.
    1
  18. No. Just the Western world.

  19. <And Government should introduce Rent Control for the low income people and build housing for low income people or make all developments always have a certain percentage of low income housing. Take out the Greed.> Rent control does not work.

  20. Congrats to government meddling in the housing market.

  21. Singapore is a city-state with no land for agriculture let alone any random person to own.

  22.  @adoof4814  Thanks to the locals who got priced out of the cities moving in.

  23.  @maheshdeore4010  Yes. In so a worse condition that a lot of citizens migrated to other countries.

  24.  @greenknitter  Which are little more than final nails in the coffin compared to the poor choices they made that set them up nicely for ruin.

  25. Thanks to high taxes and big government meddling that Canadians happily voted for if only to convince themselves they're morally superior to those Americans.

  26. And that's considering government owns most of the housing there.

  27.  @mandyellis876  Family court has probably already done that. And now the father is perhaps living in a tent underneath a bridge.

  28. And living beyond their means. Australia has a high household debt.
    1
  29. Pretty much.
    1
  30. Anyone who voted Liberal.

  31. But government meddling made house rentals unviable.
    1
  32. Not in Switzerland or even Venezuela.
    1
  33.  @robertdepesci3418  Venezuela doesn't have a housing crisis. It has an everything else crisis due to government mismanagement.
    1
  34. How? China itself is a billionaire.
    1
  35.  @chris.bcfc.keeprighton.5685  That's because all the communist countries that bore resemblance to what Marx and Engels proposed became autocratic hellholes that either collapsed or adopted capitalist reforms to stay afloat.

  36. That what happens when you make higher education "for all."
    1
  37. Only to those who don't care about their own futures to invest in it.

  38. Venezuela doesn't have a housing crisis. Ditto for Cuba, North Korea and Russia.
    1
  39. At who's expense?
    1
  40. No. It's because everyone wants to live where all the jobs, services, amenities, social support networks, etc. are at and some are more than willing to pay higher prices and/or risk homelessness for access.

  41. But the federal government does.

  42.  @hellyeah1225  Year Zero, Cuban firing squads, Soviet gulags, Cambodian Killing Fields, etc.

  43. Maybe, buy no one has the right to either. Either produce/build or buy it.

  44. Interestingly, the Soviet Union and China didn't need filthy Westerner pigs to got to war against each other. Neither did Cambodia and Vietnam.

  45. Namely the Spaniards and the Portuguese.

  46. Thanks to high taxes and government over-regulation.

  48. The future of government-imposed slavery?
