      The US built 30 million single family homes after WWII, and some people still live in them. Post war has its own architectural styles. The split level ranch came from that era.

        Many of those same “shitboxes” built during that era are now on the market here in California for over a million dollars. 😆

          I understand where you are coming from, but this initiative could come with regulations. It should come with regulations!

            There won’t be quality regulations than mean anything. There are going to be a lot of profiteering developers lining up to build tanks housing as cheap as possible. If an inspection shows it’s too low of quality are they going to miss the target to rebuild or just let it through?

            I’m not saying this isn’t good. Just saying it’s going to be “the projects”.

      Compare owning some land and shitbox you can live in to being homeless or watching all the money you earn be taken and horded by landlords.

      I’ll take the shitbox please.
