    I think these people are what you call ‘communists’
    @Corrosion @Commodore @Salvy @ROXRAN

    people who own property or anything are the enemies of the jealous people who don’t own squat

    If these woke people want to live in an apartment in North Korea
    Let them go

    Landlords aren't evil. It's just a natural consequence of the system that it's inherently exploitative. Housing is a very inelastic product that allows owners to abuse the nature of the product. I thought I did answer your questions with what my ideal system is. And it's an ideal utopia because it cannot be completed without extreme revolutionary style violence and I don't want that therefore it's only a hypothetical that isn't going to happen.


    There are perfectly nice people that are land lords. They tend to also have self awareness. I lived in NYC for work and rented a second story floor in Long Island for a year. The owner was a old lady. She was nice. She has no problem making fun of herself and saying she is bored all day. But she's a old widow who needs some stable income to live by because of this capitalist system. It's the ones who believe they have high skilled talent for being a landlord.

    It DOES take balls to scale though. Even if you're using mostly someone else's borrowed money.

    Like the guy in the interview - seems ok - but maybe that's just me. My "criteria" doesn't fit all. But I do see the point of the story. I do think that some should be given another chance because if you don't, they have little to no choice.

    But yeah I think pedos commit the sin that has to be forever watched out for (on the most innocent).
