The parent commenter also doesn’t know what the word “housing” means. Being able to afford housing means being able to afford a place to live, it doesn’t mean owning your own house. Just like being able to afford food doesn’t mean owning your own farm, having access to drinking water doesn’t mean owning your own well or river, and having access to the internet doesn’t mean owning your own ISP.
To be clear I agree that affordable home ownership is a big problem, but not being able to afford home ownership is a very different thing from not being able to afford housing, and substituting one concept with the other is just an intentionally dishonest way of muddying the waters of any discussion on the topic.
