I do not believe people should be penalized for building wealth, gaining success, or even making achievements that surpass others.

Where I believe the line is crossed is when there are intentions to suppress others from being able to own a home, maintain stability, and to achieve their own success. This may occur in the form of monopolies, mega industries in the business of buying up single family homes, strict zoning ordinances and codes, criminalizing homelessness, excessive regulation and red tape, and penalizing people for living in cars, RVs, sheds, and even tents to survive.

There have been cases where people have been fined, threatened legal action, and even forced to forfeit their own land for living in a camper or RV. A more-rural county near me recently passed ordinances banning camper living. I have seen videos where a woman is sitting on a sidewalk with all of her belongings in the open as officials tow her RV.

I feel many cases of homelessness, poverty, and hunger are manufactured crisises.
