Universal basic housing
Universal basic housing (UBH) is the idea that everyone should be guaranteed at least a place to live.
There would be some standard of basic housing (i.e. 1 bedroom per person) available to everyone for free
Discussions
- What sort of basic housing standard would be viable?
- Could UBH work under capitalism?
- How UBH could work if we overthrow capitalism
- Are there any Malthusian concerns?
- How much new housing would have to be built? discussion Maybe this shouldn't be a UBH subpage, maybe it should just be Housing page with subpages like Housing/Canada or Housing/USA. For each, one can analyze how many new homes a region needs, in order to meet standards of basic housing (which as a concept can also be separated from UBH). - assuming we don't need to do everything from scratch - some existing housing could also be made free discussion make apartments free, perhaps? discussion needed
