The taxpayers should also gain from any appreciation of the housing stock, no? Seems like a reasonable, if very abstract, take on community ownership (on paper).

Short term, many people gain from artificially inflating the value of goods in a supply restricted market, but that is just market manipulation, no real value added. Those apartments will be demolished one day and the value will drop from $100,000 to $0 in a second.
