I want people to realize that new housing today has a clause that limits the expected useful age of new builds to around 65-75 years. I just read one a few months ago from keller Williams, before a family member signed. It stated the house had an expected lifespan of 65 years. I get it, proper care and updating will keep it going for decades but a house should not have an expected lifespan of less than the average human lifespan.

Capitalism is not good for humans or the planet.

I get the the some capitalist reason for this but what’s the actual justification given for that? My house was built before the invention of indoor plumbing and it seems to be going ok. Admittedly they didn’t use plywood and the occasional nail as the primary building material so perhaps that has something to do with it.
