I'm old enough unfortunatly to know how greedy and unfair people can be. I would love to see the world and people with pink glasses but I'm not that naive anymore. The scammers in the currents Covid times show how despicable people can be.

    La normalité n'est que la moyenne de nos folies individuelles.
    Normality is just an average. I'm the weird, you're the bizarre.

    Yeah, there's greedy selfish unfair people. But we've also got a questionably designed housing system that's totally open to being taken advantage of by those people. It wouldn't matter if people wanted multiple houses if SE hadn't allowed it in the first place. It wouldn't matter that people have houses they barely use (and some would argue it doesn't now) if there were enough houses to go around, or if we had an alternative that doesn't kind of suck.

    From everything I've seen and heard, the problem with the housing system is that it's cobbled together from a system that wasn't originally intended or designed to be used the way it's being used, and it's covered with those super sticky uncomfortable Band-Aids that you really hate taking off cause it hurts like 800x more than a normal bandaid would.

    In other words, it's a not so great system covered in not so great band-aid fixes that do nothing to actually address any of the core problems of the system and imo actually cause problems of their own.

    Greedy people didn't create the problem, they've just taken advantage of what's already broken. Same as everyone else trying to make the best of it.
