Chatto counterblasts
1 total work
Part of the "Counterblasts" series, a series of polemical broadsides, this is an examination of home ownership and mortgage tax relief. The author examines the ascendancy which property and property-ownership has gained through the policy of the government over the last ten years - a policy which has transfered public housing to private hands, which has allowed those taking our mortgages to make use of special tax dispensations, which has rewarded home owners and then penalized them through high interest rates, and which has created tens of thousands of homeless.
