You are (or were) renting your apartment, you never owned it. Those property rights are held by your landlord or otherwise whoever owns that apartment, you were just a tenant.
If you want to hold and exercise property rights, you need to own property. Renting a property does not mean you own it. It's as simple as that.
- yterdy 3y ago>The mindless appeal to "property rights" seems to absolve you of the responsibility to consider these complexities, I guess. My argument relies on acknowledging what you've said as the current, horribly dysfunctional reality. You don't need to state it plainly. What happens to a society when a large subset of the population is forced to subsidize a 100% profit margin on the most expensive basic good most will ever put money towards, and it doesn't even buy them stability or predictability in access to that good? I guess we're going to find out.
