Well one. Its worked and has been shown to work and work well provided its limited and regulated. I like having my own room. Going further I like having my own home. If I could I would have some property. This is space where no one else is allowed to be except by my permission. That in a nutshell is what private ownership is. Its things that other people are not allowed to use except by the owners permission. If your allowing that but not calling it private ownership you are fooling yourself as that is what that is.
Define “worked” and “works well.” Disparity is rising, safety nets are eroding, wages are stagnating with respect to productivity, people are homeless despite a surplus of houses and people starve despite a surplus of food. It does not work for anyone except the wealthy.
You can own a home for personal use in Socialism, you just can’t be a landlord. That is Personal Ownership, not Private Ownership, you aren’t seeking an income from the labor of others, justified by your ownership.
I am not fooling myself, I just know what I am talking about with respect to Socialist theory. I’m a nerd like that.
Why? In what manner is Private Ownership better, at a systemic level?

its personal ownership rather than private ownership? yup. im done.
Clearly, you never cared about learning and only wished to preserve your fragile world view.
Call it whatever the fuck you like, in Socialism you can have your own home or live in publicly owned housing.
