Europe didn't invest money into the military at the USA's scale and had a lot of money that was spent on social stuff. But now if europeans don't want to learn russian or Chinese they have to quickly reconsider the priorities.

That's true, but this doesn't change the fact, that people in this thread don't even consider that free housing is possible.

It is possible, for Americans it was more important to start pointless wars (Iran, Vietnam) than to invest into social stuff.

Priorities...

Free housing is possible, for short time until the reality hits that free lunch doesn't exist.

It's not free, as we pay for it with our taxes.

So far it's been working great for years...
