There is no single silver bullet.

I think it's been clear for quite some time that you need to be pulling all the levers if you really want housing to be affordable.

Correct; it wasn’t one single thing that got us into this situation - and it’s going to take a multi-pronged attack in order to bring things back to sanity.

However, building more social housing should be a priority for all state Governments. Growing up in one of the commission flats in Melbourne in the ‘90s, I can tell you that stability afforded my family and many others a level of security that we have deprived those that came after by doing to invest and develop more.
