Do i need a home office? Do i need a living room? Do I need a laundry room? Do I need more than two sets of clothes? Do I need a room for my child when she could technically sleep in my room?
We have more than enough to meet everyones needs - food, water, shelter, clothing, health care - many times over. Conveniences are things that are nice-to-have, but that everyone would still enjoy after all their fundamental needs are met. Hoarding for personal gain while other people suffer is hoarding. This is not a philosophically complicated issue.
So what’s the allowance for people’s homes in your world? Two rooms and one more for each kid?
What part of “according to need” was unclear?
The need part…

I disagree. I don’t think me owning a banana to eat is hoarding even though my vitamins and plain oatmeal would meet my needs.
probably soviet style flats 2-3 rooms per family. and you can wait 10 years for your government issued car.
