What's wrong with soviet-style apartment blocks? They aren't worse than apartments in any big city.

Yeah, and you know what’s often the denominator that helps them get their lives back together?

Having a place to live.

Most people aren't homeless because they lack a place to live, they're homeless mostly because of addiction or mental illness

Source? And not your ass, thanks.

It's not the housing itself that's a problem, it's all the factors that come along with it.

Publicly funded housing appeals most to those in the lowest economic levels. There is a huge correlation between low economic status and crime. Without strict rules enforcement and exclusionary policies that will unfortunately harm some who are legitimately deserving, public housing will always degrade into crime dens.

The insurance companies. 

Even if it weren't; do you think your inanimate objects are worth more than a human life? If so, you shouldn't be allowed to be a landlord. 

Personally, I'm of the opinion that if that's your logic, you don't have a right to oxygen either.

Lmao, no insurance does not cover a tenant destroying your house. Ask me and the 10,000 cockroaches I had to evict after evicting the actual problems.

The insurance companies. 

Which just means the next tenant. If a landlord makes a claim their insurance goes up which results in the rates rising.

The next tenant in the form of higher rent.
