This comment argues that reframing the issues of housing and housing affordability will not be enough to effect change. All Americans should have a decent, affordable place to live—and that is a profound moral issue. The fact that one-third of the population is still ill-housed means that a firm, direct, and possibly less-than-cagey approach is needed to address the nation’s housing problems.
