    Sorry I didn’t read the second paragraph, my bad. I see, but then if you’re richer, maybe you want more choices🤷. That’s why, like giving richer People some place to spend, a mix of capitalism for richer countries.

    I mean, I know communism want’s everyone’s income equal, but then idk if such a thing could be achieved irl

    In all honesty neither capitalism nor communism solves all problems. Problems arise because systems get too rigid, and it can happen with either. Today’s capitalist problems are arising because America got too stubborn about capitalism, but at the same time, a purely communist state will undermine a lot of desires of common man.

    The best solution is always in between the two, and is very context dependent. Like a lot of poorer countries benefit from socialist ideologies, and when people have enough purchasing power, certain parts of economy can be run by capitalists. The world right now is in chaos because too much of economy is handed to the capitalists.

    You’re fundamentally asking for a different society. To be very honest, the Idea is great, I just don’t see how it’s gonna be implemented. Also you gotta be happy with pretty minimal houses, but I guess people in twenties who are just starting with life, this could be all they need.

    Yeah Ik this is core communist ideology, I don’t have anything against communism. I just am saying what you are asking is very different from what society is today.

    Nah it’s more like the reality outside america where people outside of affluent class own multiple properties too, and corporate isn’t involved in property renting scene. So our rents are lower per square feet for same property, than in the west.

    At the same time, if you choose to live in an economy where you don’t pay rent, you will barely find anyone outside your family willing to lend you a home.

    And replying to your previous comment, idk about America, but in other parts of the world, people outside of affluent class have homes, and rent is close to or less than 4% of property value annually, not 6-8% Americans are used to. That’s likely because corporates don’t buy property here at scale they do in America.
