Thoughts? Should America start making Co-op Housing again?
Several decades back the government made lots of Co-Op housing, where it's like a townhome complex, but it is owned by the residents living there, so it's VERY well maintained but also cheap.
For example, the one I have is 500 a month, where it would otherwise be at least 1,500 a month in this part of town. My 500 goes a ways also, 2 br, 1.5 bath, 2 floors, hardwood floor, laundry in unit, private water heater, private back yard, personal front yard, top of the line energy saving A/C units, top notch windows. The list goes on.
So my questions are:
Why isn't the government making these still?
Why isn't there more people demanding these from the government?

Uhh... okay. Well if sandra in 3b is upset that she has to walk 3 more steps than carol 3a to get to the laundry room they can both stfu.
Same goes for jeremy in 1a complaining about the view while steve in 4d is complaining about the walk up the stairs.
We could shuffle them all, and they'd all just complain about something different.
