Do you suppose laws and the legal system provide the social infrastructure to support the corporate ownership of housing as property? If so, that - outside of political will - can be modified, deleted even. Without legal support, it will collapse.
- mcculley 4y agoI currently lease my apartment unit in a 24 story tower from a corporation. My friend leases a single family home in a suburb from a corporation. Should both of these use cases be eliminated?
- kelseyfrog 4y agoDoes it matter that you lease it specifically from a corporation? I'm just going to guess that you are more interested in where any how you live than what the ownership model is of the place your living. For example given two properties in all ways equal except ownership models, you would take the corporate-owned one? I find that a bit far fetched. Even then, because we typically lack experience with a variety of ownership models, it will be difficult to dis-entangle the familiarity bias from our conceptualizations.
- mcculley 4y agoNo, I don’t want a corporation. I am trying to imagine how renting would work in dense cities with restrictions on ownership. It seems it would be a less liquid market.
