Pool resources with others in the same situation, as has been done since time immemorial. Have you forgotten that entire families would live in a walk up that didn't even have a bath or shower? That was a shared common facility in the boarding house.

We can't all be winners. There is no such thing as equal outcomes or trophies for all. Wake up and smell reality.

How is reality sickening? Is anything she said not true?

It tends to be conservatives who pass occupancy laws, in order to keep "them" (aka poor people) off their lawn er I mean out of their town/city
