From the few posts you’ve made, we know you don’t. You should probably just go away, you gonna get taken to the woodshed in this thread. But if you haven’t figured that out already, I’m guessing you don’t even know what you don’t know…ya know?

Plus, there are many countries where affordable housing is a right or at least they have solutions to afford homes (ex Germany).


Emigrate to Germany, my guy. I don't know what else to tell you. Learn German and carry your happy arse to Hamburg.

But government can’t make people take care of themselves.

We could give every homeless person a house but there’s a reason a lot of them are homeless. I know democrats ignore reality in this department but a lot of homeless people are out there on their own accord. A lifetime of bad choices have consequences. Drugs, gambling, crime, etc. it’s not just “evil landlords” like the media pushes.

Capitalism technically falls under the spectrum of communism. I think you're looking for the term socialist

Well, give it your best shot then. Stop trying to pretend you want anything else.

By the way, why is it always the Second Amendment? Why don't you shite on the First? The Thirteenth? The Nineteenth?

You do have a right to affordable housing. You work and save and buy a house you can afford. If you want a bigger house, you improve your skills and marketability and find a job that pays more.
Everybody has that right.
"Life Liberty and the pursuit of happiness". This gives you the right to pursue happiness which can be defined how an individual chooses. If you want lots of money, you can pursue that and better your life and income and the govt shouldn't stand in the way of you doing it.
If you choose to work a job that requires no skill and the demand for it is low and it pays poorly, but you are ok with that, then that is your right to do it.

Your question goes against the Constitution and it's intent. The Constitution limits the power of the govt, what you are suggesting is giving the govt immense power to set rent prices, home prices, etc. That is the antithesis of the Constitution.
The Constitution does not give you the right to bear arms, it tells the govt that it can't take arms from the citizenry. So it is limiting the govt, not granting us a right. You are looking at the constitution @ss backwards.

but no one is rallying to end homelessness constitutionally.

A path to end homelessness is to require the father of a child to provide the means to feed/clothe/shelter their offspring at a comfortable level until the child is 18 or face imprisonment.

I think the government should grant people with my name the right to a government-supplied Ferrari and a nice medium sized yacht.

You do not have a right to someone else's money.

Whose money do you want to take? As in - who will make a house affordable for you?

* The Developer?
* The laborers who build the house?
* The suppliers who provide the lumber, shingles, drywall...?

The developer, won't build and develop if he doesn't make enough profit to off-set the risk.

Thee laborers, who must work for super low wages to build your affordable house?

The suppliers, who will not provide product if their profit doesn't off-set the risk they take in building factories, buying raw material and hiring workers?

What is this new economy you've invented wheras you can force any of these players into forced servitude?

When the Constitution was written and ratified citizens built their own homes unless they were wealthy enough to employ carpenters to build it for them. DSLD did not exist at that time.
