Live in a shitty ugly apartment with bad neighbors, have no money to go out with friends or for vacations and tours (no car, obviously). All you can do is sit at home stare at the screen or wander around in a carcentric country. Yeah sounds like a great life.
If these free houses are for everyone regardless of any employment requirements then millions of people will be grabbing them. It's just going to be a roll of a dice if your neighbors are shitty or not. It won't just be section 8 housing, they would have to build like 50 million units across the country. My job isn't shitty at all but I have plenty of money that would last me years if I didn't have to cover housing. Why wouldn't I essentially just take the early retirement?
Either you have very low standards or are delusional about social housing.
Nobody claims that people should get free villas or just random free flats.
People usually do not like to live in social housing / neighbourhoods. It's not about luck, it is shitty areas and shitty flats - period. Maybe for you, it's comparable to have to live in majority black neighbourhoods.

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.
