I live in a capitalist country and we fixed homelessness by building more houses

[–] Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 year ago (11 children)

It's not always a question of the quantity of houses, but the affordability. Seeing rent being waaaay higher than mortgages were 30yrs ago is always shocking. The house i sold 15yrs ago for 600k is now worth 1.3m. And it would need a big renovation. This is sheer madness.

Don't forget removing benches so that the homeless can't sleep on them (capitalist solution, of course).

We haven’t seen a communist solution; they’ve all had governments
