    What kind of childish ass logic is that? Almost everyone has to work to not become homeless… even if you own 100% of your home and don’t have a mortgage you know you pay property taxes, electricity, water, gas, sewage, trash. those things don’t just magically appear in your house and disappear from them.

      dude, people like this don’t think those things exist, because they have never had to pay for them.

      they also don’t understand what a payroll tax is. because if they don’t pay it, it must not exist and is just some made up thing!

      Almost everyone has to work to not become homeless.

      That’s true. Let’s fix that.

      And still: Do you pay 30 to 50% of your income in your own home for that?

          You could get rid of housing being a means for landlords to profit from and hold housing in a usufruct property relation, and/or in common. Building and maintaining housing can be managed by the community (or be payed for by the community).
