When profit is the bottom line, functionality and human enjoyment do not matter.

The kitchens are an issue, and the larger point about profits is spot on.

We desperately need more affordable high-density housing in the US. Unfortunately these places are often miserable to live in. Noisy, cramped, and cheaply made.

They don't have to be miserable. There are designs, and construction materials and methods that work better.

Working class people deserve more.

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.


Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.
