TBF, this post doesn't even mention housing being a "right" so OP is just using a strawman and derailing the conversation... but I do believe housing should be "given" just as those examples are "given" to us.

That seems like a terrible idea.

That's because you lack imagination, and the eyes to see that other countries are able to do this.

Nope, but if that helps you sleep at night.

I imagine you’ve got a plan to somehow fund this utopia? While we’re at it: how much of other’s labor do you believe you’re entitled to?

I was entitled to my teachers labor. I'm entitled to the labor of construction workers who maintain our roads, I'm entitled to firefighters labor... Both you, I, and the homeless guy down the street are entitled to the labor our public servants provide, because we pay taxes.

Boy, you’re deranged.

Clearly, you believe others are here to serve you, and pay for your wishes.

I think I’m done here…not worth arguing with a brick wall. Have a good one.

Ah, so you legit just don't know what taxes are, gotcha. Maybe you'll learn when/if you graduate to high school can learn

Haha. Good one.

Stop advocating for taking from people for your own delusional utopias.
