We can't just use all our land for providing housing to people, turns out people will still need the money they make by working to pay for everything other than rent of the house.<br /><br />So land should be available for industries/job providing activities too, now its a tricky balance to meet.<br /><br />Regarding housing speculation, that is pure economics that is hard to beat. People like something because others like it. That makes the prices go up. Its hard to avoid that for any limited resources, land is one of them.<br /><br />You can't make arbitrary rules like each person can only have this much land/housing space without encouraging an entitlement society where people will get the right to land without working for it. Even if you make such rules there will be ample black markets for the people who are willing to pay.<br /><br />In general I think government should limit its job to making sure efficient markets can work and properly rights are in place and honoured. Its not government's job to punish the rich for being rich although providing for the needy is very much an obligation too.<br /><br />The cutting forests and building 6 lane highways part is debatable, if we never cut forests we probably won't have cities where we live right now. Sometimes economic activities need relocation of forests/trees, all you can insure is that overall balance is maintained.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08397269248099196734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352719.post-2509888233180104692014-08-28T23:11:37.177+05:302014-08-28T23:11:37.177+05:30Nice Blog ,this blog is promote India.keep posting...Nice Blog ,this blog is promote India.keep posting your blog with us.<br /><br /><a href="%E2%80%9Dwww.mauritiushoneymoonpackages.co.in%E2%80%9D" rel="nofollow"> Honeymoon packages to mauritius</a><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13778009125289169666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352719.post-12463927010377585642014-08-14T14:21:43.899+05:302014-08-14T14:21:43.899+05:30But not everyone says take from rich and give to p...But not everyone says take from rich and give to poor. Some of us also think.<br /><br />Here’s how. In a country which has limited land, wonderful natural heritage and unlimited population, we have to relook at how land is treated. I for one, like many economist friends of mine, have begun to think that land should not be treated as an investment vehicle. It should be solely used for living, working, agriculture or forest.<br /><br />Once that happens, then the millions of apartments being sold to investors will be available to really home buyers, people who buy to live in them, and prices too will come down. The investors, with their surplus money which can’t be locked into land, will be forced to invest in real companies/vehicles that provide a flush of capital, spurring entrepreneurship.<br /><br />As for the tribals and farmers, they should be empowered and trained to improve yield. One doesn’t rely need GM seeds if these ,ill ions of small scale farmers are taught how to utilise native seeds, species and means to grow. You would be surprised to know that there are native seed species for most of our food crops that can sustain in various kinds of soil and climate conditions.<br /><br />There should also be enthusiastic promotions for many kinds of locally grown and available foods like Jowar, Bajra, Ragi etc which have high nutrition values and low input demands. A lot can be done if we WANT to do it. <br /><br />Cutting forests and building 6 lane highways is not the long term answer. These are short term money making fixes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
