"The #outcome IS the #policy" is the most appropriate way to view governments and organisations.

Decades of #Irish #government (#FF, #FG and #coalition) #housing policy have succeeded - succeeded in subsidising private buyers, inflating prices, and rewarding #developers and #landlords.

#Ireland certainly needs a radical reset of housing policy, away from the landlords and #vultures represented by so many TDs, and towards people who live in #homes.

At best affect-worsening strategies have no effect, at worst, they may exacerbate the situation. This lends some support to contentions that #fear focused appeals produce unintended consequences such as denial, avoidance, defensiveness, anxiety, increased risk behavior, and a feeling of lack of control."
