    Great to hear new perspectives. One thing when commentators discuss housing unaffordability. Howard’s changes did the real damage however one thing I never hear discussed is how our changed society over the past few decades doesn’t enter the equation. More people don’t marry and more people divorce meaning more housing is required to cater for that.
