Oh well, it was just a passing thoughtâ€"don‘t suppose that even the planâ€" ners are THAT nuts! & RENTAL HOUSING From a reader comes a Wfion that one soluâ€" tion to the rental housing problem would be for the goovernment to sgonsor a bond issue, simliar to war nds, with the funds to be used for rental housing instead of for war. Naturally, such a plan would require a great deal of careful preparation, and there would be many vexing problems to be solved before it could be put into operation, but the results might well be worth the trouble. One good effect would be the making of a lot more landlordâ€"tenants, as each bondholder would, in effect, become a landlord. We think the effect of this arrangement would be good, basing our otfiinion on the premise that a tenant who is also a landlord, will be a better tenant, and a landlord who is also a tenant will be a better landlord. The main objection, of course, is that it moves the government still further away from its prime function as a regulatory agent. (Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say "its former prime function as a regulatory agent.") m e SOCIALIZED LA WSUITS?
