- thaumasiotes 10y agoHomeowners don't riot. Neither do married people. But while there is good evidence that marriage transforms rioters into non-rioters, giving houses away doesn't seem to have much effect on the recipients. Logically, if you want to tamp down rioting and your metric is homeownership, you should be trying to oppress non-homeowners, not trying to get houses to the people that don't have them.
