Article 25 of the declararion of himan rights: Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family

Seriously, do you think human rights are somehow just a feeling what should be? They are written down and you can look them up.

It has also never happened, there has never been a time in all of history. And the declaration of human rights isn't broadly accepted either.

Yeah, the practical problem with that of course is that if you have more humans than houses, it's impossible to immediately fulfil the "human right". This is a fine goal though, but the implementation matters quite a lot.
