Please, not this again.... Personally, I am a lot in favour of communism. But some people, especially US Americans, have a fundamentally wrong idea about the housing shown in the upper picture.

This is often neither cheap, nor does it reduce homelessness. And it's also not the goal of that kind of rental homes to reduce homelessness.

That is just normal homes of average people in many places.

It's not "cheap housing for everyone".

that kind of rental homes

The top picture isn't capitalism; there are no landlords.

What are you talking about? Of course these type of buildings have landlords.

Why do you have to bother me with an inbox notification if you can't even follow what the conversation is about?
