Realidades de la vivienda popular que no se abordan con seriedad en Medellín

Realidades de la vivienda popular que no se abordan con seriedad en Medellín

Cable Metro Estación Vallejuelos y La Aurora. Villa Occidente (Sector Pajarito). Mirador del Valle, en construcción, al fondo (17 Marzo del 2008)

COSTOS FINANCIEROS, MONOPOLIO DEL SUELO, ESPECULACIÓN DE TIERRAS, REDUCCIÓN DE CALIDAD, IMPUESTO PREDIAL Y SEGREGACIÓN URBANA

Abordar la ciudad informal y la vivienda popular implica una actitud ética. No se puede hacer vivienda para pobres con el criterio de que las restricciones económicas implican una reducción en sus necesidades como seres humanos. No pueden existir normas diferentes, ni normas mínimas, pues todos los hombres son iguales. La falta de compromiso del Estado como oferente de soluciones de vivienda social ha dejado el tema en manos del sector privado, y no hay un control sobre la vivienda. (La ciudad anónima, Rogelio Salmona)
