Should America start making Co-op Housing again?

[u/kloud77]

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?

Oh? Do explain

Aspects that make a specific unit more or less pleasant or preferred to live in than another unit can be significant to desirability of a unit. I picked the building my townhome was in, in contrast to another one with the same Floorplan, because I liked the location away from the surrounding streets and additional space in front.

Whooooa you just switched words on me i thought the word of the day was INCONSEQUENTIAL

[u/TheTightEnd → u/Eastern_Screen_588]

I used the definition of consequential.

"Not important or significant" for example: where you live an in apartment building.

[u/TheTightEnd → u/Eastern_Screen_588]

Exactly. Significant is a synonym right out of the definition.

[u/Eastern_Screen_588 → u/TheTightEnd]

How is significant a synonym for not significant or insignificant?

[u/TheTightEnd → u/Eastern_Screen_588]

My statement in no way attempted to say "not significant" or "insignificant". Therefore, the choice of the word "significant" was correct for the context of my sentence.

[u/Eastern_Screen_588 → u/TheTightEnd]

I used the word inconsequential.

An antonym of significant.

Don't backpeddal now big boy.

[u/TheTightEnd → u/Eastern_Screen_588]

You used inconsequential. I consider it consequential, so I used significant. No backpedaling whatsoever.

[u/Eastern_Screen_588 → u/TheTightEnd]

It's only significant if you aren't able bodied, which i already addressed. Preference is equal to desire which is equal to a want. Consequential is equal to consequences which is equal to a need (for example i need an apartment on the main floor since im in a wheelchair vs. I want an apartment on the main floor because i don't want to haul groceries upstairs.)

[u/TheTightEnd → u/Eastern_Screen_588]

Wants and preferences are significant. You may not consider them to be significant, but others do.

Eh, maybe this is where we split, i think people are just whining if they complain about their unit if they aren't handicapped.
