So the government has to pay him to rent out the place? American taxpayer dollars going straight into his pocket.
The French republic was inspired by the American one so I think it’s time for the Americans to do it the other way around and take a page from the French. If enough of you go out in the streets and stop work you can get anything. And if that doesn’t work then the French had other methods you could borrow too.

I don’t disagree with you. But in this country, if you stop working, you lose your healthcare. So it’s a tougher sell for most Americans that y’all might think. It’s not that you’re wrong, it’s that a lot more of us have to get a lot closer to the “I have nothing left to lose” stage before we are going to be willing to do what you suggest.

The incredibly fucked-up healthcare you currently have? That’s a reason to keep things as they are?
