We need:

-limit 1 house per family

-serious rent control

-4-storey apartments built owned by the public and cooperatives

-Stronger renter protections

That's a lot of 4-story apartments, since that's the main thing that will actually get built under this scheme. I guess it worked okay in the USSR, but Soviet citizens definitely did complain about the lack of other options for living arrangement.

Probably not - social criticism had to be subtle or the KGB would have words with you. The theme makes it's way into various works of art, though, like Enjoy Your Bath.
