So true, and then stupid libs will say "erm acturally those homes look ugly" or "seeing bread lines makes me uncomfortable" as if homelessness and starvation is a better alternative.

The very same people who call effective, government-provided housing "ugly" are the ones who pay almost several grand a month for a cubicle with paper-thin walls. Crazy world we live in.

Ah but you see those crazy inefficient cubicles with no room and walls you can literally punch a hole in have fancy and trendy paint jobs, they might also have a fancy smart tv that plays advertisements 24/7 and a smart speaker that listens for any sign of dissent. All that for the small price of $7,000 a month (with a 20%-50% rent increase year on year). Truly modern living the way liberalism intended.

Not to mention that the bread lines came AFTER the liberalisation of said communist countries.
