Economic crisis? That would be terrible! It's a good thing we never have any economic crises under the current system!

pretty sure this would lead to some sort of economic crisis

And? We’ve already tried it the other way around, and we’ve really got nothing to lose at this point by trying OOP’s idea out.

The floor moves to vote in the "Send gansey boy (a.k.a @dickthree) to hell" bill.

Respond with a yay or a nay.

Nothing actually. That would work fine. If it was handled in good faith.

What could go right? If apartments cost $100, everyone would own one and there would be no speculative market in them — no rental market at all probably.

No good person can become the president of a rigged as fuck system

[–] TronBronson@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

No good person can become president when 78 people vote for donald trump, and 40 million decided not to vote because the outcome did not matter.

No good person can ever get elected with the never ending promotion of Apathy as supreme leader of the resistence.

COMMUNIST REVOLUTION WEN?

you could honestly make every apartment cost 100 dollars and no one would actually get affected

Those who own the land and go ape shit over their value don't even take advantage of it and sell it off, more often they just die and have their kids inherit it, and the landlords who benefit from every type of inflation in real estate

of course this assumes every housing unit is owned and managed by the government, and these themselves are incredibly successful even if they only have 10% of the real estate market

Like the stock market losing trillions? That kind of economic crisis?
