Hey maybe we can do what almost every other developed country does, what we used to do during past housing crises? Build public and non-market housing alongside the market stuff. Just like healthcare, there’s no reason, even in theory, to think that the “free market” alone will provide everyone with adequate housing.
The free market shouldn't be providing healthcare.
Yes. In case it wasn’t clear, that was precisely the point of my analogy.
