CPM: Affordable Housing

Day 673, 17:55 Published in Canada Canada by Addy Lawrence

I haven't written an editorial in a while, the Money-market report has kept me busy and I am getting it almost down to a routine now so some time is freeing up. The Commodity, Product, Labour report requires a bit of work on the tax end but I will have that ironed out for this weekend and with a few report-outs behind me it will be less time intensive as well.

I look back to those first few days as an eCitizen and I'm amazed at how far I've come, keep the faith you noobs out there, it will happen. Two click it and read newspapers as much as you can, join the eCanada forum and some political forums and things will sort themselves out.

I have a mission that I'd like to pursue, I call it "Affordable Housing".

I don't own a house. I've researched them and essentially they help you get more out of your food. A house and the proper sequencing of your clicks can get you six battles a day versus five. This is significant with respect to advancing through your military ranking. Houses are also permanent, which is a good thing. The deal is, houses aren't common, primarily because they are expensive. eCanada also has an abundance of wood which should make house building big business, its isn't.

I envision an eCanada where ecitizen commonly live in homes, they extract the most wellness from their daily bread, and deliver an extra attack on a regular basis. Other nations fear an attack from eCanada because of those six attacks and they start from nearly 100 each day, not in the low 90's. These subtle differences add up.

In a nutshell, I'd like to see eCanada use its "EI" labour pool to build Q1 houses. These Q1 houses would be GIVEN to eCitizens on some basis (seniority, tenure, need...). Some bureaucrat would make sure that nobody received more than one house. The person would be free to do whatever they wanted with the house but being the eCanadian they are, they would use in responsibly, eventually trading it up for a higher level house, and donating the house back to the government so that it could help someone else.

I don't want the government competing against industry so I'd like to keep them from building houses higher than Q1. This would do great business for the wood trade, get our population excited and familar about housing, and promote higher wellness levels across the board. Higher wellness = better output at work, higher damage on the battlefield.

The plan has its warts, fortunately you'll have a chance to comment on it. Also, I'm not in the political position to bring this about, but I do aspire to, and this will be one of my platforms.

I'm running for Congress in Newfoundland and Labrador under the banner of the Canadian Progressive Front. Please consider voting for me and please exercise your vote regardless.

Who's your daddy? Addy's your daddy!!!
