Yan Yu Lin and her seven-year-old daughter live in a tight studio in San Francisco’s Chinatown, in a century-old building where 60 or so residents on each floor share a bathroom.
Along the back wall of the room is a plastic potty – the kind designed for toilet training toddlers. The shared bathrooms are out of order so often, so rank and unhygienic, that Lin has her daughter use the plastic potty instead. “It’s safer,” she said.
This Dickensian-sounding living situation is more common in the US than most would think.

Sounds a lot like the back-to-backs of England - perhaps not surprising considering they have were built at roughly the same time.
As back-to-backs were built as the cheapest possible housing for the impoverished working class, their construction was usually sub-standard. Their configuration did not allow for sufficient ventilation or sanitation. Toilets and water supplies were shared with multiple households in enclosed courtyards. Back-to-backs gained an unfavourable reputation for poor levels of health and hygiene.

Bingo.
The misery of the back-to-backs was slowly remedied throughout the course of the 20th century - basically none were left in the original forms by the late 70's/early 80's - they were all either demolished or renovated to have their own toilets.

They get what they vote for. They earned this with their actions. Now they blame everyone but themselves.
If not commiefornians, it will be afghanis and haitians. They will replace via demographic shift as a highest priority.
