  1. I've long believed that housing supply is deliberately restricted by the powers that be because it's integrally linked with the money/debt creation process through mortgage lending. Affordable housing for everyone would effectively kill this golden goose and crucial economic lever for government. A degree of contrived permanent scarcity helps to keep prices rising, people borrowing and the economy lubricated with a constant supply of new money. The simplistic 'too many people, not enough houses' supply and demand theory is a convenient if plausible lie.
