Comment on When leftists say "landlord are parasites" or similar dislike of landlords, do they also mean the people that own like a couple of houses as an investment, or only the big landlords?

  How is “the community” defined and how is this ownership managed?

    Public housing is not a novel concept.

      No sheet.

      Ok, so you want all housing to be publicly owned? That would be interesting…

        If you’re aware of public and social housing then why are you asking how community ownership and management works?

        In any case, yes, of course all rental housing should be publicly owned. Vienna’s Gemeindebauten and Singapore’s HDB, among others, have proven that pretty definitively.

        I’m not certain that all housing should be public, though. Privately owned primary residences are probably fine, in the grand scheme of things. But rental housing for profit should obviously be abolished.
