      During great depression, they were called Hoovervilles. I say we bring it back, call them Trumpvilles

        Looking at old pics of Hoovervilles is depressing. They were so much nicer than modern homeless encampments. I’m talking real wooden cabins, built on a grid, with stoves/chimneys, and even mailboxes/actual mail service. People who were homeless during the Great Depression were better off than people who are homeless now, because the larger community tolerated them rather than constantly sweeping then

        the Faircloth Limit as an amendment to the Housing Act of 1937, which limited funding for the construction or operation of all units to the total number of units as of October 1, 1999 and repealed a rule that required one for one replacement of demolished housing units.

        The OP is about how liberals react to public housing built in the USSR: with horror

        Meanwhile their own political/economic system does not even attempt to supply all those in need with housing, and leaves its citizens to rot in tent camps or with even less shelter

        I mean, either you have a state that actually spend the resources to house people, or you get that.
