This is your comment from above. In order to make such a comment you are by definition either a collectivist or socialist. It reflects some fundamental illiteracy in the basics of economics and markets, because you suggest that a virtue would be for sellers or landlords to accept lower prices or rents than the market clearing price. That’s nonsensical frankly. It’s like suggesting asset owners are evil unless they hand out their assets as charity or donation or perhaps you will next suggest they should be obligated to, which is by definition redistribution and socialism.
I’m curious what education you do have and where you received it? You are here on HN and while I haven’t looked through your account history, I’m guessing you will somehow be technically very literate yet somehow have a mental framework for human economy and society that consists of some of the most failed and falsifiable concepts conceivable. Which country and/or state failed so deeply in providing a background in the economic components of our shared reality? there are many such as yourself and it’s incredible dangerous to civilized societies as when such wild failed and empirically flawed concepts are translated into policies via politics it brings incredible devastation, poverty, and suffering.
We need to start with reform of education systems. Almost as bad as not teaching evolution or perhaps even history of the holocaust.
- carlosjobim 3y agoYour comment reads like stringed together insults, or at least attempts at insults, mixed with some stalker tendencies. There's nothing there that really merits a response, and this is just a forum, so I can ignore you. But try to consider your attitude and behaviour, because in real life you probably have people that can't get away from you that easily.
- alchemist1e9 3y agoHuh? I think this reaction from you could be an avoidance strategy of some sorts. Multiple other comments are genuinely curious how individuals like yourself hold such bizarre views around markets but yet are likely technically very skilled. It’s a curious phenomenon. I don’t have any issue in real life and don’t have any “stalker tendencies”, people check other accounts posts and histories commonly and it’s expected. I was saying I haven’t. I’m both a landlord and buyer and seller of real estate. Let’s say I follow your recommendation of selling or leasing below the market price, then I would have multiple buyers or tenants to chose from. What would you recommend my selection criteria between them be?

- carlosjobim 3y agoYour lack of self awareness is weird. Do you think it's normal behaviour to hurl a bunch of insults at somebody and expect them to have a conversation with you? Nobody will give you the time of day when you go on like that, certainly not me, so bye–bye.
- alchemist1e9 3y agoDon’t worry I wouldn’t have expected a collectivist or socialist to engage in logical debate. I’m fully self aware that when I challenge an opinion like you expressed that the classic response is that I dare “insult” your righteous assault on evil landlords and capitalists. The tragedy is that in modern times the failed socialist nonsense is still given any time of day.
