We’re paying just $448 per person for housing, but our peers shell out $602—26% more than us—while families still can’t afford a decent roof over their heads. How is that acceptable when we know we could be spending $590 per person to finally fix this mess? It’s time our leaders stopped shortchanging us and matched what the rest of the world already invests to keep people housed.
