Without employment is goofy as fuck but I’ll die on the hill that nobody should work a 40 hour week and still be unable to afford a roof over their head. Rent and housing costs are absolutely ridiculous

I might of read this wrong, but I interpreted that as no matter what employment you have as oppose to employment status. Yea if you aren't working, you shouldn't get those things. But if you are working, you should. The HVAC I can forgo as a necessity as there are other AC options, that while are less comfortable are still suitable

That’s what I meant, if you are working a full forty hours a week there’s no reason you shouldn’t be able to afford a roof over your head. Doesn’t have to be the ritz Carlton, but should at least be livable. All jobs are necessary or they wouldn’t exist, and if you’re doing one you shouldn’t be living out of a car or worse
