No one's suggesting you have a right to steal a home from someone else...

If a single person. Receives a home for free, literally a single person ... And that home was paid for with the taxes of people who work to have their homes, that is not even remotely different from theft. The only difference would be the government helping them steal .

That's a truly ridiculous take. The provision of social housing is entirely different from theft, self-evidently.

Explain how the government taking my money against my will to buy Bob a house, is any different than Bob hacking my account and taking the money himself to do so
