The government spends just $426 per person on housing, which is 28% below what comparable countries shell out—$588 per person! We’re barely scraping by while these other nations are actually investing in homes, and we’re supposed to be fine with that? No way—we need at least $540 per person here, matching what’s normal elsewhere, not getting left behind!
