I'll sponsor if you wouldn't mind amending the title

[Davincia]

Yes, but I certainly wouldn't sponsor a bill with no justification behind it.

The justification lies within turning back control to the private sector.

Or you could just accept the will of this Parliament, which voted literally a day ago to put this in the hands of the public sector.

The EHA does not prevent the private sector from building houses.

I've been thinking about establishing a national postal service. A WIP.

It seems rather pointless, and almost on the verge of time-wasting, to put this bill into the queue mere hours after the bill it intends to repeal was voted through by this Parliament, especially based on the comments from the author addressing your concerns.

Do you want to know why? Because it would flood and crash the housing market with government built houses that would also raise debt tremendously with solar panels costing up to 30k extra per house (assuming that they are all "free.") Furthermore this does not set a limit on how many houses should be built, or how many homeless there are in need of a house - all it demands is that houses be built every year when homes can be currently resold.

The reality is that it won't be free and we'd probably end up with a lot of peopleless houses and a lot of homeless people that can't afford them. AKA basically the same problem with the US

That has to be the most illogical argument I have ever heard. "We just voted for X, and you're still against it?!"

Absolute unintelligent nonsense.

There were enough abstentions to overturn the vote if they were all abstained nays. If we were to vote on the matter again, the bill might get repealed. I, for one, had not considered the potential for the act to create a housing bubble. I'm now reconsidering my vote in favor of the initial bill, as I'm sure others are as well.

You want a re-vote because you've changed your mind?

I want a re-vote because I'm convinced that new arguments have surfaced which may cause many others to change their minds.

"If every single person who abstained votes in favor of a repeal of said bill it would be a miracle, it's an impossibility senator, and you know it. This is a morbid waste of time of this Senate in such times."
