Housing should be a human right

Public housing in form of large panel system-buildings would be a good way to combat homelessness and the housing crisis.

People don't respect things they don't own.
@JohnnySpot. Privatized housing stands in the way of housing everyone.

@JohnnySpot That's not true what makes you say that?
@Gloomy housing is a right that cannot be speculated on by capital if people are to be housed. Everywhere that the free market touched housing we find suffering and homelessness. Mega landlords currently threaten even the middle class because we allowed landlords, social parasites to exist. Miguel says it clearly and he's an expert.

@JohnnySpot For many that is true. Landlords who own rental homes sometimes spend more in repairing damages after a non-paying tenant moves out than whatever money they got when they were paying. I lived in a little rent house, moved out & moved into an all-bills paid apartment. I took care of that rent house cleaning up things that needed, a flooded cellar, a storage room full of junk left by the previous tenant, trimmed badly overgrown hedges, trimmed up the rose bushes, kept it mowed, cleaned the carpets, etc. After I moved out a young man rented the home. He went to Dallas for the weekend and ended up staying over a week, had left large dogs inside of the house. He moved out & the owner had to pull up all the carpeting and discard it while wearing a mask, it was filthy. Had to paint everything to get rid of the stench etc. That tenant had lived there less than 6 months and caused a huge amount of damage.
