a right implies it would be enforceable in some way.

housing should be a human right imho. sadly, it's not a right in the US and it's gotten worse with every decade i've been alive.

it's an obscenely expensive commodity out of reach by many, even working people, and those who find themselves not 100% covered by their US health insurance who go broke.

non-profits and government subsidizing housing help a miniscule amount of people.

i'd love to pack up and leave the US and move to northern europe or switzerland but it's easier said than done especially when you have no family and friends there. i've tried moving away twice. it became too lonely and in one case too much driving required.

any friends and family group in northern europe or switzerland want to "adopt" me into their social group? i'm financially independent and but it takes more than that to pack up and move. :)

i work a predictable 40 hours a week schedule but it's corporate, conformist malaise that's killing me.

i used oscar for the past 3 years in NYC as a self-employed freelancer. yes, oscar has great customer service.

but that doesn't make up for the limited network of crappiest doctors at the crappiest facilities - mount sinai beth isreal is NOT a network of quality doctors or a "quality" facility. and i had the most expensive platinum plan. i bet these oscar execs don't use the dr offices i used.

thank gaia i took a staff job with decent insurance.
