Half of all renters in the US make major, long-lasting sacrifices to afford housing. A basic failing of US capitalism. Many millions suffer so a small minority - landlords - profit. The system is the problem.

    Well but when the Government provides Housing and it’s shitty throughout you can go and demonstrate for better quality of life which you can’t when the housing is owned by privates. They will just put on the street.

      And yet the housing will be still shitty compared with market driven solutions, such is UBI

        Homelessness is the market driven solution you dense as osmium apologist.

        Where’s that copy pasta that the only thing more depressing than the brutalist commieblock housing complexes is the homelessness they were built to prevent post WWII devastation?

          It is one of the solutions. With UBI you should not have homeless (provided that you also have a mental care)

        Everything is better than late stage capitalism. And UBI is the only correct answer against the AI revolution.
