Shelter, - It's a brave new world

Shelter - It's a brave new world, or is it?

Things change and if anything is as important as the things we need to provide shelter and warmth, then I am not aware of it. Although communication is a huge new factor in modern existence and it may even equal the cost of living for some other categories of life, it is recognizable as a relevant fact of modern life. Still the basics are shelter, heat, food and clothing. Shelter has come to dominate the cost of living and this is not a new phenomena, but a historic fact of living in an oligarchy. The symptoms of the disease are the same, even if you change the definition of the system you live in to a democracy.
