    I agree with it. It is trivially true that, as long as housing is allocated under capitalist rules, there is not enough housing.

    Too many socialists fixate on the fact that, if the Red Army swept through tomorrow, there would be enough housing. This sort of thinking is unhelpful and unrealistic. People are unhoused and unable to afford rent now. A diversity of strategies is key. We should be pursuing public housing, making Section 8 an entitlement, land trusts, co-ops, but also replacing anything that's not already multifamily housing with multifamily housing.
