Reply #284: excellent housing for all-it's a right not a privilege

[poe]

in a world of finite resources if some are corpulent than others will have little or nothing. does one need a link to prove the obvious.
now i am all for unions and beyond-yet i don't see where it is written in stone that union builders must build tract housing. in fact that suburban model was brought into being by a conglomerate of interests who had/have profit in mind not inexpensive elegant housing for all. been around builders all my life and they get bored stiff with the cookie cutters and most of them are rather talented and would prefer to build unique and varied structures. and the suburban model is extremely energy intensive and very expensive if you measured it in real economic terms rather than the narrow parameters of the market which omits most of the true costs. eco-nomy;eco-logy.
