They absolutely are. You just need to pay attention to what the people at the top want and they don't want us owning houses or land. Heck, they don't even want us driving cars. They want us all compacted into cities away from everything else so they can do as they please where they please. Ironically enough, this is WAY worse for the environment. Most pollution in the US, for example, comes from cities like NYC, Chicago, LA, etc. and they are some of the most toxic places to live too. I visited NYC for the first time in 2015 and ended up sick from the air pollution. I was coughing up all sorts, my skin became dry, my hair was falling out... This was just in 2 weeks spending time there. After I left, I felt better immediately. Now imagine living there for years or even decades.
