      So everyones labor should be free for you to take then? How are you not the parasite for wanting others to build, maintain and fund a place for you to live?

          What’s holding you back from taking a loan and paying mortgage instead of rent? Risk aversion?

            I can think of two reasons but I doubt this is exhaustive…

            Most people don’t have enough capital to make the down payment. When one person has no savings, they’re irresponsible. When most people have no savings, it’s poorly designed policy.

            In addition, the option of being able to rent out a house increases its value, which makes mortgages more expensive than they otherwise would be (with no rents).
