People should have the right to a life lease on land. Any recent examples of this practice?
pogimalate asked:
This should be without payment to governments businesses or private individuals. This should be allotted to them when they reach the age of majority. They will have the choice to use it or not , in which case it can be allotted to another. Use of land (not all land) should be a right. Commercial use of land can still continue, but the fat profits enjoyed by the lucky few who can hold the many to ransom due to the need to put a roof over their heads will be tempered and the landless/homeless will get a better quality of life. A house in london or its suburbs is not in the reach of a regular salaried employee , and those that have recently entered the property ladder have mortgaged 60% or more of their income just to house themselves. This can not be fair or equitable. An alternative should be found. Likewise in less developed countries the right to use and live on land (not ownership which can be sold) should be a basic policy of all nations giving people the option to live cheaply .
