- thegrimmest 3y agoWrongly so I’d argue. It’s your own responsibility to secure a place for yourself (to live, and in society generally). Failure to do this is personal, not collective.
- irrational 3y agoUh... how does "unhoused" do that? Or, I don't see how unhoused is synonymous with "the government has not provided these people with a house". The opposite of unhoused would be housed. Is everyone that is housed in that position because the government provided a house for them?
- zilti 3y agoIt does not. That is not how language works.
