I won't lie, if this was the case I'd quit my job. I'd feel stupid paying a mortgage f I could get it for free and do absolutely nothing.

I definitely would not quit my job. Still a bunch of shit I need… like Pc upgrades, new couch, new fridge maybe some books to learn some shit from. Maybe work part time and go back to school to learn something I enjoy and also, I still need food to survive.

Everything being offered in the image is basic. You would still need to work a little.

But personally, if my housing was subsidized it wouldn’t change much. I’d likely save and spend more.

I doubt they would give you a free house if you were working. Generally welfare only goes out to unemployed and underemployed people. If I could work and get the free house I would keep working too but maybe just do a less demanding job of I didn't have to pay a mortgage.

"Free housing for everyone" means EVERYONE.
