Lovely

Not every city, town, or neighborhood is "beautiful", "historic", or "lovely".  Neither is every home.

Many are in need of repair or several in need of "replacement".

When that's the case, who foots the bill?  And should a "minimum" standard of dwelling (not lifestyle) be "worked toward".

We don't know or maybe.

Let's start with "government" reimbursement or refund "checks".  Those are "free money" unless they aren't.   Should it be "handed out" as "piles of cash" on request?

No, it should not.

We do or don't have 2 or 3 suggestions:

• Put it on "charge accounts" to be distributed for "home improvements" or emergency.
• Use it to "provide" homes for those "in need".
• Never use it to "buy out" some amount of a home's "price" to "devalue" it for the next "first home buyer".  What good would that do?

Backward or "home ownership is a 'fantasy'".
