    I’d rather live in a small, no frills apartment with only the most basic of rent prices to help cover repairs in a socialist economy over being homeless in a capitalist one.

        The problem is that socialist systems do have higher access to housing, but proponents of capitalism see the system through the eyes of those privledged under it.

        Oh, there’s people who would not because they’ve been trained to knee jerk to socialism being evil. The argument as well is that I’d rather live in a society where I have my needs met over one where I have a .0001% chance of being extravagantly rich.

        Feel you’re missing the forest for the trees here.
