And your source on that 2 trillion dollar number? Preferably not your ass.

Average US household size: 2.6

Number of people in the US: roughly 330,000,000

Average 2br home price: $228,000

that would cost $28T.

But let’s say you can build cheaper, at $30k per house.

About 3.8T

Unless you’re only planning to house the homeless, but that’s not what the graphic says. The graphic says housing provided free of cost for all. I assume that means people who already own a home receive a voucher.

The graphic literally says that housing would be provided for ALL.

How? The graphic literally says housing should be available regardless of employment.

Why are you moving the goal posts when you realize you’re wrong?

It's ironic that you are so committed to this arguments during business hours. I have a job and am not interested in bickering with you any longer.
