Hey Everyone, I was reading a story about how the hotel industry is concerned about commerce during the pandemic.

I was therefore thinking of ways that we can help the industry and ensure that we help society at the same time. I think we should convert them into bachelor style apartments for a low cost housing option for the homeless to allow the industry income and help us find homes for every member of every nation. Perhaps we can reach out to different organizations to combine efforts with the hospitality industry to ensure that everyone has a home throughout this crisis and beyond.
