Are rising housing prices putting the future of Australian society under threat?

Edmund Burke famously said that society was a partnership between ‘not only those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born’.

What would Burke, I wonder, make of the current housing market and if we were being good stewards for future generations?

Young Australians are increasingly being priced out of the property market, resulting in declining birth rates as families can no longer afford to have children or secure a stable home.
