Universal Housing?

I started work framing condos at the age of seventeen in june of '73, before my high school graduation ceremonies took place. Ten hour days and side jobs on weekends helped me bank as much cash as I could. Two years later I had enough for a down payment on a 1 1/2 acre piece of land, while at the same time I learned a lot about carpentry and home building at my job. Also bought a variety of books on construction to teach myself. Paid off that land loan in one year by saving every dollar I could and not buying anything that wasnt a necessity. In '77 when I got engaged.....I built a modest house by myself...with no financial assistance other than a mortgage loan.
My blood, sweat, and tears earned me the "right" to own that property......and no....I dont think paying for it myself was "cruel".

Meanwhile most of my former buddies continued the alchohol and drug abuse kick they were on .....partying......now probably looking for free housing.
You only deserve something if you've worked very hard for it.

I agree with what your saying. this is just another OMG sound bite , more concerned over the comments of someone with zero power , yet look the other way with Trumps latest rounds of executive orders which once again distorting presidential powers
