Economy and work
Housing Build more, no rent caps
Said
The housing problem is caused by interventionism, high taxes and illegal immigration, not by neoliberalism.
“La vivienda es un problema europeo, nos dice Pedro Sánchez; y el problema es el neoliberalismo. ¡Bah! ¿El problema sabe cuál es? El intervencionismo, los impuestos abusivos que les caracterizan a ustedes y que han llenado el país de inmigración ilegal.”
Our translation Housing is a European problem, Pedro Sánchez tells us; and the problem is neoliberalism. Bah! Do you know what the problem is? Interventionism, the abusive taxes that characterise you, and that you have filled the country with illegal immigration.
