BTW, that Trump thing wasn't a direct attack on that specific reporter, but on how the left goes spastic about everything Trump does.
And, YES, western Europe tends to be more left leaning than the US.
Like in the UK, Scotland still has "council house for life and beyond" where you can leave your welfare housing in your will.Ā England and Wales got rid of that (except those grandfathered in) about 5 years ago.Ā No idea about Northern Ireland.
Once you are in welfare housing, you could never be kicked out.Ā Your max rent is capped at 60% market value, but can't go up once you are in, regardless of how wealthy you become, ie winning the lottery or starting your own business that's worth more than Ā£100m.
People in welfare housing believe that their home belongs to them in the same way that homeowners do, except welfare housing is at best low rent or free rentals.
