To be fair, there shouldn't be a "window of affordability", that is a symptom of an ill society. Our ability to acquire shelter, one of the most basic of needs is being stolen from us.
If the capitalists (the psychopathic hoarder class) do it with our homes, you better bet they'd do it with air if they could and watch those that "missed the window of air affordability" suffocate and die.
It's our duty to put a stop to them, there's nearly 8 billion of us and their numbers are a rounding error yet we let them drag us over the waterfall. How? They invented something called "the state" and use another invention called "money", which when combined with marketing allows them to be able to pay others to back them up. This fact is why police are bad people at the most fundamental level.
Yes. Yeah. Sure. Wait, what?
I don't think I agree that "police are bad people," at least in total; but I think what they're saying is that the police as an institution exist to protect the wealth of the wealthy, not to protect the lives of the poor (and further are expressing the idea that anyone who voluntarily enters that field is more interested in protecting property than people).
I think there are many reasons people become cops. Some want a feeling of authority. Some want to feel like heroes. Some want to hurt people. Some want to simp for billionaires. Some—maybe the minority—want to help. Probably most cops got into the game for a combination of those reasons. The truth resists simplicity; particularly personal truth.
But one thing that isn't oversimplified is that the modern institution of policing was created to protect the profits of slaveholders—the capitalists of the 1800s—and our laws, written by capitalists, have done very little to shift that mission.
