I was going to say, if a minor is disowned by their family (or even an adult is kicked out and has no home anymore), isn’t it explicit state policy that they be given some kind of housing? Aren’t the homeless in China are mostly people who nominally do have a home but live on the streets elsewhere (especially people from the country seeking an income in cities)?
I’ve only read here and there about policies and such, is this consistent with what your people tell you?
Edit: Some fucker in that thread quoting Friere is so annoying, he was a Marxist! And of course these self-proclaimed anarchists are going to take The Economist’s word on China. What wretched fucking morons.
Edit 2: I need to stop looking at that website. Look at this shit. To the right of Robert Conquest on Soviet history, quoting Orwell, and of course being uncritical about sources when it owns the tankies. When people say that anarchism is extraordinarily vulnerable to Useful Idiocy, this is exactly what they mean. I don’t think they are feds (too low-value an operation) but this shit is basically just an ineffective version of what feds would do.
That is for sure the case in Cuba, and in fact you can disown your parents in Cuba and they still have to help you monetarily on top of the free housing. Unsure about the specifics in China, could ask around
Yeah there is a real issue with transient homelessness particularly undocumented homelessness, but that’s more of an information issue. I’ve seen interviews where a lot of homeless in this situation are people prone to being tricked and trafficked, so it’s a black market issue that needs to be handled.
