Housing is such a unique thing that I think it should be treated differently when we talk in terms of 'capitalism', 'public services', etc. Everyone needs a house. Nobody can use more than one house simultaneously. Houses are incredibly expensive, but most of that cost is purely market-driven. Housing is, essentially, a zero-sum game.
