Tent City, USA

Mike Shedlock uncovers the hidden shame of Tent City, USA.

Here is the cost of converting a social good (housing) into a commodity.

The Capitalist illusion of providing social goods through production of commodities has been exposed as a fraud. Here these people are thrown into a refugee camp as the property rights of the banks are enforced.

Commodities are only produced for people that can afford them. If one cannot afford the cost of food, water, or housing, then one does not eat, drink or find shelter.

The people here would defend the right of property owners when they had houses to live in. But now, they have been sacrificed to preserve the Capitalist system of property rights.

The right of property trumps human rights to food, water, and shelter. So much for the right to life!
