Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has launched a comprehensive housing initiative to address the country's housing deficit by building a million homes and offering zero-interest mortgages.

The program, aimed at supporting vulnerable groups, focuses on female-led households, young people, Indigenous communities and senior citizens. The announcement is a fulfillment of Sheinbaum's campaign promise to create affordable housing and promote equitable urban development.

The US is at the bottom of the list for caring about citizens in any metric. No paid maternity or paternity leave, most expensive healthcare in the world, no guaranteed vacation, sick, or Holiday pay.

Remember that when you need to focus your anger somewhere, or if you're terminal and want to take some of the trash out with you. It's their fault; evidences by which professions are rewarded - almost none of which are necessary for society, or people in general, to thrive.
