tariffs??? capitalism requires regulation. Regulating home ownership would not hurt our industry one bit, and that's all that matters in a country. Stop blaming the wrong thing. The alternative to capitalism is 50,000 unit cement apartment blocks. Or RPGs at eachother's temples. | |||

if that was an admission that you aren't on board with dumbass, short-sighted libertarian housing policy, heard.
i got family in japan. it's even stupider there. they have now what the rest of us will have in ten years: 50% abandoned structures. homeless problems really chap my ass when i see all these abandoned strip malls doing absolutely nothing around my area, and yes, there's entire camps within less than a mile from where i live, as we're near big-network train tracks in the exurbs. where are these deregulation folks, then? republican policy seems incomplete in the actual counties it controls. admittedly, no, the neoliberal right-wing democrats don't have a plan for this sorta crap, either. i can see why the orange man is appealing if you're a low-information consumer. our closest cook-out has been closed for months, you have to go one entire mile to get a burger for three bucks | ||

Free houses are great but it’s a small % of the homeless who have the capacity to make a free house work
Section 8/HUD housing will kick you out if they find out you are doing hard drugs in there. Problem is they almost never find out You would need to screen for particular homeless to give the house to, starting from the top working down for ones without a crippling substance abuse problem, without crippling mental illness, and ideally without a cripplingly low IQ, which a lot have. I mean, you could give the houses to anyone of course, but if the goal is for the house to be a road to self-sufficiency, those at the top of that hierarchy I described are the most likely to have that happen for them. The rest are likely to either leave the house or destroy it So do we do the kinda mean thing and help out starting at the top of the bottom of the barrel first, or do we waste houses? (Making them super hard to destroy could help but the lowest functioning homeless are likely to leave them eventually anyway) | ||

Housing Shortage Explained: Why Supply Can’t Keep Up
You're not wrong — the housing market is complicated. The issue isn’t just “not enough homes,” it’s where and how we build them. In many states, including Texas, there’s still land available, but zoning laws, construction costs, and interest rates make it tough to expand quickly. So while there’s demand for homes in Texas and other growing areas, supply can’t keep up — which drives prices higher even when space technically exists.

Yes the solution is to import labor and build up until the planet looks like Cybertron.
Exactly what a machine would want. Nice try bot. | ||
