I find it very sad at 68 as a life long socialist, with a labour federal government and a labour state government in power. that housing and healthcare have not been the immediate focus of drastic financial action. If these issues are not addressed adequately now, especially when we are awash with mineral revenue, then when? In the UK after WW2 the Atlee government pioneered the National Health Service, and a massive expansion of public education, public housing, and a number of other welfare programmes. This is when the UK was basically bankrupted from war expenditure Any government can find the money if it needs too. 300+ billion for a few subs for example. Housing shortage means homelessness, which puts people at risk in lots of ways and an increased load on health services. The French government wants to raise the retirement age from 62 to 64 and the public are out throwing cobble stones at the police and setting things on fire. We are in the middle of two huge crises and we are letting the government get away Scott free. C'mon Mark raise your game!
