Y'all be making fun of this, not realizing that you don't hear about a housing crisis in Eastern Europe
Lucky you if you haven't heard of it.
And yet there definitely is one. These are still capitalist economies after all.
Maybe once they run out of apartment buildings, but that's not gonna happen any time soon.
They already have. Here in poland the commie-block apartments are bought and sold on the free market and a lot of them are kept empty as an investment while people have nowhere to live.
These problems exist everywhere where there is capitalism, no matter what infrastructure was already built there before.
I don’t know the details of the situation in Poland, but Poland does have an 87% home ownership rate.

Only communism can run out of apartments, under capitalism apartments are only "in high demand". In other words they are hoarded.
It's over here in North America too. Houses are unaffordable almost everywhere you go.
Woo the capitalistic hellscape we always wanted
Am eastern european. There is a housing crisis.
Eh, they're okay
Much better than being on the street and you're kinda exaggerating how shitty they are.
The bush in the local park was right there brother
But I thought it was better than a block
That's a pretty bad argument if you're making a case for these buildings. "It's better than the streets". What's next? "Water and bread are better than being hungry"? I think we should cross a line somewhere.
Of course living in the streets is worse than any house, but it should never be the baseline. I'm not making a case against those buildings, just your arguments is shit.
It's almost like they were made to house a lot of people fast and cheaply
Much like living in a tent on a city street?
And how exactly is that different than one of the same 5 apartment buildings that are being built in every single city in the US?
