"We have supported over the years a number of people working full-time who are having to live in vehicles."

This is unacceptable. No person should be without a warm, dry, secure home. Especially in a country perfectly capable of building luxury homes for rich people's cars.

But when people working full-time are homeless, it's undeniable that NZ capitalism has reached USSR-in-1990 levels of broken.

@strypey It’s like that in the US too. It’s time to break the back of modern capitalism and try again.
