  1. And at who's expense will council housing be built? No profit = no revenue for basic maintenance. And then you wonder why they end up privatized.

  2. Who needs the father when big daddy government is around?

  3. You, the government, is the reason why Air BnB is a thing. Restricting landlords' ability to evict bad tenants in a timely manner among other things to make long-term renting no longer worth the trouble.

  6.  @ryansweeney1661  Most of the people at the bottom are every bit as selfish and evil. Better to be lonely at the top than miserable at the bottom.

  7.  @preciousjemstone2816  Especially if they insist on living in the big city.

  10.  @nimanixo  How many customers do you see in a week?

  11.  @jamesli1256  No. In most countries, they'd be living in a makeshift shack on the outskirts of the capital.

  12.  @rosiekapun207  < Also super unethical. > Not at all. It's called recouping costs. Landlords are not charities nor are they renting anything at a loss.

  13. Never have, never will.

  14. <this crisis started when Thatcher was in government and it’s just worsened over the years. > To clean up the mess the Labour government left behind resulting in the UK being a dump.

  15. Reinstate welfare term limits.

  16. No. Just a Western problem.

  17. The government is part of the housing crisis.

  18.  @Someoneanon718  <Welfare is guaranteed> As long as the government doesn't find out about your other sources of income.

  19.  @streetfashiontv9149  But the UK has the US beat in homelessness per capita.

  20. Why?
    1
  21.  @jannetteberends8730  Actually, no. Housing is not a human right just like it's not a human right to force others against their will to provide it.

  22.  @kb4903  She must be an Instagram model.

  23. Better than socialism and its close cousin, ENVY and entitlement which is its own form of greed.

  24. Namely in cities run by Democrats.

  25. First cap all taxes and stop greedy government.

  26.  @doomergirl3981  It doesn't.

  27. For cleaning up the mess the previous Labour government put the UK in including bankruptcy.

  28. If so, then why can't you buy your own house with said paycheck instead of looking to the landlord to provide it for you?

  29. Maybe tenants on Universal Credit = irresponsible and too much of a liability?

  30. She's an Instagram model.

  31.  @wft15  And government restrictions on building.

  32. Not really. They don't owe anyone a thing. Plus, a lot of poor people are lousy with personal finances which part of why they're poor in the first place.

  33. Government over-regulation made affordable housing costly and borderline illegal.

  34. Milton Friedman was anything but irresponsible. Chile benefited from his ideas and is one of the wealthiest countries in the Americas. <build massive public housing.> The UK Does not need ghettoes or the government being the ultimate slumlord.

  35. The UK has more homelessness per capita than the US.

  36.  @rosiekapun207  Housing is not right as not even council owes anyone housing.

  37. <The whole world is in a housing crisis. > No. Africa doesn't have this. Latin America doesn't have this. Asia doesn't have this.

  38.  @Uglyalrhaydur  Fascists are socialist as well.

  39. At least California has better weather.

  40.  @starbwoy133  How can they be with high building costs and real estate prices?
    1
  41. But the housing market is over-regulated, hence the shortages and higher prices for whatever didn't get taxed or regulated to death.

  42. <the decline in the traditional family structure (for whatever reason) > Feminism and welfare.

  43.  @gregkareem9824  In other words, more slums.

  44. After all, the big city isn't for everyone.

  45. And who's rights are to be violated for that to happen?

  46.  @KallusGarnet  Or Hong Kong.

  47.  @emlmm88  Keep their legs closed, make better choices in the men they date and sleep with, etc.

  48. Maybe because people on UC = irresponsible and unreliable?

  49. <affordable price> Translation: at someone else's expense meaning landlords have to eat the losses and renters who can afford market rate have to pay higher prices to subsidize it.

  50. <a country this small should only have 10 million peopl> But back in the colonial days, that same 10 million was considered overpopulated
