How are we just going to give people houses and apartments? How long will they have no mortgage and no rent?
What do you mean, "How"? You just give them they key. Don't you own anything in your life that you were just given and didn't have to pay for? What the fuck is there to understand?
Where the home that key is to came from and how you expect it's construction and maintenance is going to be paid for. You talk as if homes just exist and are waiting for society to distribute them.

Correct. Basically the attitude was to pass the cost of the shutdown onto the smallest demographic possible and ignore any possible consequences.
Well not so much the bailing out of the stock market. They bailed out employers in exchange for them not laying people off and causing a recession.
