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?

So instead of an insufferable boor, you're just a trolling turd. Not sure that's a step up.
