>Housing doesn’t have to be a commodity at all. It can easily be an unconditional human right. I don't think you know what a commodity is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodity In fact, I think it would make more sense to say, "As a practical matter, housing could only be made available as an unconditional human right if there is [at least a subset of all] housing which IS a commodity." In strictest terms, real estate can never be a commodity because it is all unique. Commodities have to have "full or substantial fungibility", which can't exist when housing occupies a fixed physical location, which is unique. (So perhaps some housing could be a "commodity" even in a strict sense if it could be moved around. . . Think mobile homes.)
