Bad for whom? Shareholders? Fuck shareholders, people need homes they can afford.

Ideas labeled as crazy or even violent have sprung up over history when people are pushed to breaking points.

Capitalism’s formula for infinite expansion will eventually break people.

How things like housing, healthcare, education, food are allowed to profit boggles my mind and is deplorable.



Bad for making it so there are homes that people can afford.

Capitalism yada yada - people need resources in order to get homes, people will only construct homes if they get resources in exchange. These are just facts of the world - it sucks that building costs, but it does.


If there is demand for house construction, people will build houses as a service. No land ownership, or even no housing ownership does not change this fact.


*profit

Profit is stolen wage or stolen housing.

When profit is allowed for things that make people safe, housed, healthy, fed, or educated, those profiting are, imho, committing crimes against humanity.


Ok, this is a parody account. (Or someone with 0 knowledge of Econ 101) Time to move on.


> Capitalism’s formula for infinite expansion will eventually break people.

Is it really capitalism when local governments and NIMBYies prevent housing?

In truth, communism has broken housing in the US.


> communism

There has never been communism. Especially in the US.

Stop pretending people owning homes is impossible and only for corporations - it only makes you seem like the simp for profit piece of trash you are.

People don’t prevent housing. Capitalism does.


Trash comment by trash person. Grow up dude.
