This is what kills me among many things about Republicans. Trump's pitch is "BiDeN RuInEd EvErYtHiNg!" and his only policy is "deport everyone and give the heritage foundation whatever they want."
Democrats actually have plans to attempt to fix the issues we have, whether self inflicted or not. Whether they can actually accomplish those plans is something else, but at least there's a plan other than bitching "the other guy sucks so vote for me!"
Magoos act like we are the same with Trump, but that's because it's all fox news tells them and their feelings get hurt when we say how horrendous Trump actually is so they get defensive and rely on BoTh SiDeS!
Those are going to be some shitboxes.
The US built 30 million single family homes after WWII, and some people still live in them. Post war has its own architectural styles. The split level ranch came from that era.
Many of those same "shitboxes" built during that era are now on the market here in California for over a million dollars. 😆
How many cheap new homes have you been in?
I understand where you are coming from, but this initiative could come with regulations. It should come with regulations!
There won't be quality regulations than mean anything. There are going to be a lot of profiteering developers lining up to build tanks housing as cheap as possible. If an inspection shows it's too low of quality are they going to miss the target to rebuild or just let it through?
I'm not saying this isn't good. Just saying it's going to be "the projects".
Compare owning some land and shitbox you can live in to being homeless or watching all the money you earn be taken and horded by landlords.
I'll take the shitbox please.
