Comment: This is ridiculous.  Government to build social housing.  Oh ya, this money will be spent wisely.  Government is better off paying the rent for people in need, not build housing that will fall into disrepair and cost even more down the road.  Do we not already pay the rent for those in need?  Sad reality is we are better off making landlords wealthy than building overpriced and mismanaged government social housing projects which are notorious for fraudulent bidding schemes.
