Do you really want government provided housing? The ones I am aware of are places like the projects and were the worst place to live (unless you were a drug dealer).
I’m not sure what you mean by “the government” but why not look at the medical system in the US compared to any other similarly developed nation?
Is your thesis that profit motive and competition the only way that any good or service should be produced?
Would you prefer to pay a toll on every privately owned road you take? How should mercenaries be paid in order to guarantee they won’t mind living in a nuclear sub for months? If the weather service can’t raise enough capital by selling stock how should we collect weather data?
The medical field is one of the most regulated things in america.
My thesis is that the government structurally cant do things efficiently.
I dont want zero government, but I want smaller government. RIght now the US has the biggest government(s) in the history of the world, why not make it a bunch smaller? The government is the direct cause of why things are so expensive, would you like to have cheaper housing and in exchange less government involvement in your life?
Because I dont want to die. If there were no market system how would you get food and survive?
Do you think market economies are the only kind humanity has ever had?
No, but how is a market economy worse than what people did in the past?
Consider the thread we’re in. Housing perhaps should not be market driven

When imagining that the government do more can you not imagine that it do better?
Yes Americans have a shit government, they also don’t have a socialist government.
You’re pointing to the corrupt right wing hellscape you currently live in to deny that another way would be better.
What is one definitive thing the government does better? I want a 100% solid thing, and not just a thing that they have a monopoly on.
