MODERATORS
It's a good idea in general to have more universal public transport, but it's much more efficient to build up rather than out. And you're still putting limited construction resources into massive single family homes, when it could instead go into duplexes, fourplexes, and small apartment buildings.
You could still build smaller homes but there's so much space in Australia and a lot of it is barren. We could use fertile land for farming and start building in less fertile areas but no one wants to live in semi arid environments.
barren land requires infrastructure to be built and maintained too.
Oh I know. It would be expensive and not really viable at this stage but a man can dream
