You know that people can chose to build a home that’s better insulated on their own right? Poor building standards is a very loose term. Let me explain the problems with your term.
1. Poor - poor to whom? By what measurement?
2. Building standards - do you mean building codes? Building regulations? Consumer demand in design? Something else?
Strict building codes aren’t the answer.
Also, 110 degrees is uninhabitable to who? I can build a home that works just fine at 120 plus and passes ZERO building codes.
Think outside the box, don’t reach for government intervention!
- persedes 2y agoYou mentioned poor three times, do you believe that most people can actually do that or that landlords will do it on their own? I'm sure there's plenty of niches for certain people that can pull this off for themselves, so there'll always be people better off individually, but I don't see this working out for a society as a whole. Best example for this might be the Rio Verde community in AZ, people with well water access may be doing fine, but the 500 others are screwed now that the area is hit by a drought.
