Sorry to focus on the greedy developers comment, but one thing I'd ask you to consider is that sometimes you need some greedy developers to balance things out a bit. The US has gotten so bad at building housing supply to meet the demand that prices have obviously gotten out of whack. The past several years in Austin, TX, though, as an example, have shown that unshackling some greedy developers to come in and build is actually good for the masses because it leads to reduced rents/prices. That's not the entire story in Austin, but it is a major reason prices have come down.
I feel like we've been out of balance for so long (decades and decades and decades) that it might be a good idea to swing the pendulum back to the greedy developers so that rents/prices become more affordable. Disclosure: I guess I'm sort of a greedy developer albeit at a tiny scale.
