"As a consequence, so many people in public housing don't really feel like that's theirs"

That's because it's not theirs. People that actually WORK for a living subsidize the housing through income rape.

Correct, it's rented from the government and subsidized by the "income rape" of other citizens.

HUD calculates there rent. So the Pastor's statement is wrong from the get go.

What it comes down to is that in the US you have a choice. You can do nothing and live the narcissistic dream and live in government housing that is not yours, or you can work, maybe very, very hard, for something that becomes yours.

But the former complaining that it doesn’t feel like it is “theirs” is not only comical, but not to be taken seriously as a thinking human being.
