By law everyone should be forced to buy a house this will end homelessness.
Those that already have houses should be forced to pay more so those that do
not have a house can afford one. Those with really nice houses should have
a Cadillac tax put on their homes so that those who cannot afford homes can
buy one. This will end homelessness just force everyone by passing a law to
buy one; works for healthcare should work for homes too. I hear they are
passing a law to force people to buy guns, maybe we should pass a law so that
no one can break the law!

Why should everyone have to buy a house from capitalists? Live where you choose to live. That's your house.

Who ever said that mandating health care insurance will eliminate the need for health care?

How about eliminating ignorance by mandating the teaching of evolution in schools? 😉

You don't get to choose what you want, you have to buy it.
Nay nay nay, it would be the law. 🙂

What if you can choose between voluntarily paying $1000 per month for health care, or being forced to pay $500 for the same quality health care? What would you pick?

No, because they are there using the stuff.

But in the case of locked up empty houses alongside people dying of exposure in the streets while the home "owners" are kicking back in their other, better home in Palos Verdes (or wherever)...

Go ahead and kick in the door. You can sleep on the furniture in there.

Yes those houses are in such great shape after homeless people invade them and live in them for a month.

The owners should be there to protect them then. Obviously those houses aren't that important to them.

We have a vast surplus of houses due to stupid capitalist decisions. Who cares what shape they're in? We have too many anyway.

Can you make the claim that is what would happen, really? Nothing is free and
if the market pressures say 1000 per month is what it really costs, than that other
500 dollars is still a reality that will not go away simply because you say so.
Unless you pass a law that says so maybe!?

Who cares if they are using it, if I want it? Buying and selling don't seem to matter
so why buy if I can take?

Because that's wrong. That's assault, and theft - not according to the government's laws, but according to universal moral values - if you live there, you have a Right to Property over that home. If you don't live there, government cannot give you that Right to Property by voting on it.

"The owners should be there to protect them".
Great reasoning, next time you leave something that belongs to you unattended I guess it's OK with you if someone takes it?

"Who cares what shape they're in?"
I suppose the next occupants might care, or the people who have to pay to put in new windows, paint over the graffitti, fix the smashed walls, clean up the urine and feces soaked rooms, replace the stolen appliances,etc.

Homeles people generally don't take good care of places they occupy.
