It’s like deferring all housing construction to for-profit developers has been failing even with incentives and subsidies in the form of tax breaks.

Without any involvement from the public sector to build government subsidized housing and lacking financial supports to create new non-profit coops, there is simply no incentive for the private sector to build housing that’s affordable.
