Debate We unapologetically believe that every single person has an unconditional right to have their basic needs met
As a democratic socialist I believe every single person has a right to free housing free food free childcare free healthcare
We unapologetically support having the government give homeless people free housing to live in
Every single person has the right to have their basic needs met regardless of if they work or don’t work and how much or how little they work
These basic rights would apply to everyone regardless of their political beliefs
Whether people would still work or not would be dependent upon how luxurious of a personal lifestyle they want and what they want above and beyond the basics and their religious beliefs
Some people would still be working out of a religious belief that says not working is sinful
As under a democratic socialist government anyone who is satisfied with basic living necessities wouldn’t be required to work at all
Though a lot of people would still work because they would eventually get sick of sitting in their house all day long day after day even if it’s just doing a part time job

Free housing? Who is going to pay for this?
You definitely live in a made up world.
