    You might be able to get everyone living on the streets off the streets by redistributing these properties, but the most extreme forms of homelessness aren’t the entirety of the housing crisis. You also have to deal with working class people living in overcrowded apartments, people forced to live far away from their work, young people unable to find suitable places to start families, etc.

    These problems don’t just disappear because you have a socialist government that redistributes all the rich people’s property- housing was a constant problem in the Soviet Union all the way until its collapse, because despite building a massive amount of it, it simply wasn’t enough.
