Popular houses against crisis.

The same way as in 1993 was launched the car popular with low taxes, the governments could create large programs for promoting popular houses.

Brazil, it is known, has a phenomenal deficit of popular houses, calculated in 7 million units. Initially, the program could begin by financing granted to own functionalism public, with discounts in leaves of payment.

The government paulist gave small shows how could be a model for the basis of the program. Teachers of state schools of São Paulo, calculated in an army of 240 thousand professionals, may purchase low laptops in 36 plots of R$ 36 monthly.

Calculations of professor of Architecture of PUC-Campinas (SP) Douglas Piccolo indicate that 1 million homes popular demand investments of US$ 35 billion and create 300 thousand jobs direct during 12 months. Only by way of comparison: the whole Brazilian automotive industry employs 113 thousand staff.

"The multiplier effect on the building is very great. What is lacking effectively is a policy for popular houses", says the teacher, studying the theme four decades ago.

In addition to governments, companies directly linked to the chain of construction could enter the community helping service crisis measures via dissemination of financing of popular homes. Brazil has a great opportunity to create a policy directed to supply the lacking housing.

Construction, as is well known, it is also source of raising taxes. Therefore, the stimulus to activity is also synonymous with taxes.

Not enough that, building is effectively a car-chief of the economy. Their participation in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in the twelve months ending June was R$ 124.5 billion - This represented 4.6% of total GDP of the period, which added a total of R$ 2.7 trillion dollars.
