Comment on But think of the landlords!
Gorilladrums@lemmy.world 5 days agoThat’s dumbest argument imaginable. Drugs are considered illegal, drug addicts access to free rehab in most countries… does that mean nobody uses drugs? Because that’s your argument. The Soviet Union had homelessness. Just because they made it illegal, that didn’t make the problem magically go away, and just because they denied it that doesn’t mean it’s not real.

No, it’s not real because there’s no evidence for it other than “some anticommunist made up some numbers based on hearsay”. With employment being guaranteed and housing costing 3% of monthly income, there is essentially no way people could be homeless.
