Are we starting from scratch here or working with what capitalism has given us?

The only way you can give everyone shelter is with that which capitalism has given us. If we were starting from scratch thereā€™d be no way to even keep everyone safe from lions let alone sheltered.

If you had a bunch of people and the knowledge, you could rebuild modern civilisation from scratch within 64 years.
