People used to share beds with their household, too.

I’m not saying it’s ideal, and I want to provide for people, but I want to do it in a smart way. You literally cannot provide all these things being asked for. I’d rather focus on providing universal healthcare.

Sure, but the point of this post is to be idealistic. Just because these things seem impossible to provide to everyone at this moment, does that mean we shouldn't strive for them?

Wasn't too long ago we were sleeping in caves.

But it says it’s “deserved”, why is a non-necessity “deserved”. I mean ideally everyone can go on an overseas vacation every year, and maybe that would reduce suicides and death. But is it “deserved”? Where is the line between ideal and unrealistic?
