I'm including apartments in my definition of a house. As well as row houses, terrace houses, duplexes, town houses, flats, and etc. I would never want to live in a detached suburban house, that sounds like absolute shit living. So many chores, such high AC bills, and so far away from amenities. Massive pain in the ass imo.

Also the government owns your house in 2024, genius. It's all on land claimed by the government. They charge taxes, and they can bulldoze your home to build a carpark or an airport or a freeway bypass if they fill out the right paperwork. Yes, mediaeval kings were more oppressive than capitalist governments. But in many cases mediaeval kings were less oppressive than capitalist companies put together with the government.

And a mediaeval master was not a wage labourer. When wage labour became commonplace at the beginning of capitalism, it was a social crisis. People were trapped in a permanent state of social adolescence because they didn't get to take ownership of their means of production after completing their apprenticeship like in mediaeval times.
