But there’s no dinner my mao-loving friend, just the need for a wheelbarrow full of cash if you need a place to live. Landlords are banned, what do you along with everyone else new to the area do - buy a place for a million or so each time you need to move and lose a cool hundred grand or so in selling and re-buying expenses each time you need to move elsewhere, or spend more on a couple days at a hotel than you would have spent on a month at an apartment owned by one of those rent-seeking parasites? Use that gray squishy stuff between your ears, it’s got to be at least somewhat functional with that fancy title of yours!

The scenario of "landlords are banned" seems so unlikely to happen in the forseeable future that what happens after hardly seems worth fretting over. Is this a possibility that regularly concerns you?
But the thrust of my observation (and it was just an observation) was more along the lines that some aspects landlording seem like their own worst punishment - not exactly a Mao-inspired call to arms.
Anyway, not sure what it is you do/did in life but I'm glad I didn't do whatever it is, you seem unhappy.
