| In the reality of the world for virtually all animals, if you don't/can't find food & prepare it to eat (also known as "work"), you don't eat. I've lived in a tent long term while studying a skillset, and now, a few years after breaking into good paying work, I almost have enough money to purchase a tolerable enough piece of property and build a cabin on it. Having lived on communes, including one where even felons were allowed, know now that I would perhaps offer free or low cost tiny houses to people, but only if I knew they were working towards something positive. ... I'd like to know how many out of the 28 are expending effort towards earn a house or rental in some way, such as working, studying, or building skills. pro-social stuff. And how many are doing the opposite: drugs, crime, etc. anti-social stuff. Because although houses exist, they require effort to keep: taxes, maintenance, etc. If a person isn't willing to expend effort, how can it be justified to give them a regular ol' house? Perhaps a tiny house as part of a government or NGO-funded social safety net program. |
