“and yet the welfare rats need concrete brick and steel housing rebuilt every 40-50 years... go figure”

The log cabins were built by pioneers. The projects are built by the lowest bidder. Or, more likely, the most corrupt bidder, which is even worse.

yup, not to mention they knock holes in the walls, let garbage mount to attract rats, animals destroying carpets and floors, the list is endless...

my stick house was built in 1850, will out live me, and prolly last another 50-100 years, makes a difference if you own it or is given to you and paid for by the taxpayers
