Have you ever thought that the houses don’t need to be in big cities? Why is that not an option in your mind? Other states bussed them out, they can pay to bus them back in and give them homes.
Why would you advocate for keeping displaced people displaced?
it’s insane how people cannot imagine a way to make decisions that’s not profit driven. people’s minds are so poisoned by capitalism. If we’re around in 100 years, people will judge us like they judge any superstitious culture from the past. We sacrifice our own to the “profit motive” to appease “the market”
Did you read the person I replied to? You can’t house then where they are with socialism or marxism or Harry potter magic. Sure, yes, move them, that’s sane. But no you can’t just snap your fingers to generate housing in places with no footprint to build in.
There’s no reason to reply to you at all if you can’t read dude. This starts with “we can’t house then where they are because capitalism” but this is the fucking point. You can’t house then where they are no matter, literally because of square footage. Public transit and house. Calm your tits and learn to read.
Well that’s not what you said. It’s not unreasonable except for the fact that you just eliminated all the green spaces from an otherwise concrete jungle. I could be persuaded anyway, but it’s a not insignificant downside.
Ok I actually feel bad now. I’m being sarcastic. Build more houses in cities, and people can live in those houses, just like the people in those cities that already have houses. People use transportation to move around inside of cities.
No need, I was objectively being an asshole for most of it. I’m a leftist, and I want to live in a world where people are put above profit and cooperation is more important than competition. I want to live in an egalitarian society not a stratified hierarchy. I’m extremely frustrated not just by how far from that we are, but how much further we constantly get.
I took my frustrations out on you as if you were being malicious

Oh don’t worry, the end of the world’s probably coming around 2045 with the start of the post-oil dark ages

Why are you hung up on the literal square footage of where these people currently sleep on the streets?
People commute with public transit across great distances.
But yes, downtown areas can be densified. Did we hit the limits of engineering? As far as I can tell we can still build tall buildings.
Holy shit bro, just think.

No I mean it lets build houses under bridges and in parks

Ok then agreed. Sorry for the vitriol, I wasnt feeling heard/understood and maybe handled it poorly.
