Housing used to be affordable enough in the US too. This is what you get when the US takes a few decades thinking it won the Cold War.

But at what cost 😔
"The cost is pretty cheap actually" -says Sichuan local
The Americans still have to pay for the tents themselves, and then they get harassed by the police.
but but but if you just let them get houses, they won't try to better themselves, and they might complain or say no when I try to exploit them harder, and they might even refuse to scab for me when the union strikes!
but ewww they all look the same and white, I'd rather live in a unique custom built tent on the streets of designated San Fran
