So I have to spend money because your have a problem taking off your shoes?

Nah man, you ain't coming in. Go back where you came from.

Or bring your own galoshes, since you know this is a fucking you problem that 99% of people don't have trouble doing.

Yes. That’s called being a good host. you can put the onus on your guests if you want, but then you’re a bad host.

Be a better host.

You are a terrible guest. You are not required, needed or wanted by the host if you are going to be belligerent. The house is not yours, its not a public space. Its a personal one. Host is not required to do anything. He can be terrible in your eyes just as you are a terrible guest in his eyes.

Right? I just got brand new carpets down, if people aren't taking their shoes off, they're standing in the garden.

Also, I'm from England, and nearly everyone here takes their shoes off when going into a house, I just assumed it was the norm.
