    Sorry, just go farming and build your own house? Do you think those things don’t have significant upfront costs that would be a barrier to people in precarious conditions?

    This is not a serious argument, it’s completely detached from the actual barriers people face in reality

      Really, those things have cost? Seriously? No way!

      Next thing you’re going to tell me is that the people who already incurred in those costs (farmers, construction workers) want to earn money to cover those costs and their labor!!

      What a scandal!

        you seem to lack critical thinking. This type of anecdotal “wisdom” you’ve adopted merely allows you to dismiss the true nuances of undertaking anything you’ve commented. You know more often than not, things are more complicated than a casual glance would suggest.
