So, some countries have protections for squatting.

Squatting is legal.

In the USA property rights are very strong. Read the article I posted earlier. Basically in Amsterdam a lot of companies were colluding to keep apartments empty which inflated the price. In response people were legally allowed to squat the apartments provided they were unoccupied.

This fixes the problem of empty apartments.

Comparing the rights of squatters in the USA to the rights of squatters in other countries is a non-starter. I'm saying if citizens in the USA had the same rights to squat as they had in the Netherlands in the 70's and 80's the problem would be fixed.
