Okay, where are you getting these examples from? From my experiences
of living in the United States I am a bit confused by what you mean.
First of all who would ban theatre? The government? It doesn't really
make any sense. Everyone wants entertainment. Second of all who would
ban houses? This sounds more like a totalitarian dictatorship. The
more money people make the bigger they want their houses to be. If one
wants to be successful then they will be. Normal people do not end up
homeless. They are mostly mentally ill people who have been kicked out
of institutions because they can not afford to keep them any more.
Either that or drug addicts who have spent everything on their
addiction and can not work because of it. I don't know maybe you were
talking about some other form of capitalism because I did not really
understand what you meant. Bye!
