    Did you not read the comic?

    Also, I’m not sure why you think the government owes every citizen a house.

    I’m not arguing against social safety nets, but straight up paying for housing for every citizen is how you end up with everyone living in shoebox apartments.

    I’m sure that you haven’t even considered the numbers at all on this. If you think the current taxes will pay for it, you’re mistaken.

    Even if we took the entire military budget, that would be less than $2,500 per citizen per year.
