1. You just have to look in Yad2 for apartments
Israel   (07.25.11)
There's hundreds of them that have been for rent/sale for months and months - people are simply NOT prepared to pay thousands and thousands of Shekels every month to support greedy landlords and sellers' lifestyles.
2. Two Years Later and "Let Them Eat Cake"!
Kerry Zias ,   Raanana, Israel   (07.25.11)
After a self admission of knowing about the problem for two years and saying, 'Not everyone can live in TA penthouse', is the same as saying LET THEM EAT CAKE!
3. Its all about supply and demand...they have the suppy you
Al   (07.25.11)
provide the demand. Were Israel a poor little country the prices for flats would be inline with the demand. Israel is not a poor little country...It is doing quite well thank-you very much. However in entitlement rich Isreal where every two bit schnorrer has an attitude of entitlement, then nothing anyone does is good enough for them. I say grow up and suck it up. No one owes anyone anything. As to the protests they are being paid to protest by EU anti-semites. They are professional aggitators with a political agenda. Its that simple.
4. Dr. Yuval Steinitz PhD id not Minister of Finance!
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (07.25.11)
"From A Rational Point of View" is the title of Dr. Steinitz's doctoral thesis. He is not an economist. He knows nothing a bout real estate. He served as Chairman of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee. He is in name Minister of Finance but actually Netanyahu's fall guy or stooge!

Pls explain: what is yad2 ?
6. "Not everyone can live in TA penthouse"????
marlene ,   Philadelphia, USA   (07.25.11)
Not everyone is supposed to - petty jealousy running rampant. Do you want communism - "to each according to his need; from each according to his worth." And: "Do not covet."
7. Why don't the people rent a luxury suite at a 5-star hotel?
Billionaire Bob ,   Ra'anana   (07.25.11)
I just don't see any problem.
8. Penthouse?????
Max ,   Ashdod   (07.26.11)
My kids would be happy to live in a 2 bedroom walk up in Jlem where they both work if they could find one for less than 3800/month.
9. Are we idiots? Who is he trying to fool?
sheik rattle & roll ,   USA   (07.25.11)
What about the almost 100 percent tax on fuel products and cars. It makes no sense what so ever to tax that much for cars or gasoline. Make life easier for the people by getting rid of this ridiculous tax.
