| Message | Housing is private property and belongs to the individual. |

| Message | Housing is private property and belongs to individuals, something the current law doesn't stop. What the current law does provide for are those whose income cannot stretch to purchase or rent private accommodation to have a roof over their heads. In economics, shelter is one of the primary requirements for a productive individual. Stopping them from having said shelter due to their inability to purchase/rent a private home would not only be a disgusting sign of the Country but also a possible economic disaster. |

| Message | No, I can't see this as a way forward, i feel it would increase the number of homeless. |

Everybody else profits. Soldiers are the ones losing their lives, losing friends, having their lives disrupted. The real victims of American imperialism are its soldiers." - Fred Gardner |
