Can we just IPO humanity already? I want to buy puts.

It is most certainly the government's business providing housing for its citizens. Like we did, the state- and thereby the people (who own the fucking state), collectively owned like half of all homes in the country. Rent was dirt cheap, anything belonging to the apartment or house was the responsibility of the landlord (a communal entity) to maintain on their own buck, everyone could easily get a home, and it was considered one of the social wonders of the world.

Then the capitalists bought their way into government, sold it all, and now we have a "housing crisis".

Conservatives- they sure know how to create a good life for everyone.

There are 8 billion houses? Do you count mud huts into that?

Capitalism is literally moving us back into feudalism. Everything is for sale. Even democracy, it seems. Perhaps fascism would be more profitable? Market is bullish on fascism!

Rule 1: Make money.

Rule 2: There is no rule 2. Go nuts!

Look, capitalism works. There are no problems and everybody is happy. As long as we keep pumping out children and just build build build, and then skim some off the top and invest in lawyers and lobbyists to change democracy for the better, we will all be rich and also ok.

Did you know that the original version of Monopoly was called "The Landlord's Game", and was used as a teaching aid to teach the poor about the inherent immorality and inevitable loss of freedom and equality land ownership entails? Then a capitalist came along, stole the whole thing, rebranded it Monopoly, and made a shitload of money.

I don't understand why anyone would downvote this.

I did a few times when the "anti-AMP" robot came on Reddit. I was so annoyed by them like, "bitch, don't tell me my link is dodgy, I didn't ask for your help". Then I clicked the little "Why?" link in those posts and learned exactly why they were right and I was a dumb little crybaby.

Psychological treatment. Efficacy may vary.

"I collect opened old cans of cat food."
"You need therapy."

"I collect money."
"Oh wow, I have an idea for a startup and need investors!"

"Let's play a game where everyone just tries to get as much for themselves as possible. Together! That way, we can utilize the human species' most base emotions and cardinal sins in our favor! And then let that game run forever, and put in control of every single aspect of society, the planet, and people's minds. That way, EVERYBODY GETS RICHER/WINS!"

The emperor has no clothes and is standing in the middle of the town square jerking off.

And we accept that, apparently.

Until it's all gone.

Haven't you caught on?

I don't get this post.

Are you saying that this will cause inflation to rise? Mind explaining?
