      The housing already exists.

      There are many times more empty houses in Burgerland, held by banks, than there are people without homes.

        True, but those are speculative housing not fit for the "poors" and never to actually be used as a place for living in (like that fuckin' tall skinny apartment tower that has malfunctioning plumbing).

          All of them? There's many times more of it out there than there are people without homes. Should we really buy the bank-driven claim that those houses are all totally unfit for purpose? If they all are, why do the banks hold onto them if they're so supposedly worthless? :cap-think:

            Oh I'd live in one of those places compared to being homeless (though their true value is due to land and a place to place money that will appreciate late), but ngl I'd rather we bulldoze the majority of that shit down and build actual proper communal and block dwellings than put people in isolated penthouses in which it's made where you never see another human being.
