    Capitalism solves that problem, albeit imperfectly, by making housebuilding profitable when there is a supply shortage (home building has gone up as prices have shot up in the US.)

    Lmmfao, how’s that been working out for you? And how about everyone else around you?

    I don’t see how anarchism solves this problem at all

    Ah, well, if you, a single individual so deeply indoctrinated by capitalism that they look around and think it’s offering them solutions (ignoring the fact that it also created the problem in the first place), and who clearly wilfully knows nothing about anarchism (or communism, for that matter), says it can’t solve this problem, they must be right… 🙄🙄😂

      You could have answered them instead of just being degrading. Not really selling the ideal in the followup. So I guess I’ll try: Its anarchy, so there is no government. Some communal apparatus would probably appear that works on the construction of houses. What’s the incentive? Well we’re already living in a community where giving back to it operates in the place of money. So they’d just build houses, cause thats what they do.
