And last month this was just a meme...

They have these in Japan as hotels, and they are expensive. It works pretty nicely for that, but renting them as a permanent dwelling is insane...

It won't be long before they are not allowed to quit their job or leave the area. Welcome to Neo-Digital-Feudalism. History rhymes.

The standard ones were like $35/night last I checked. Not exactly expensive. Housing (at least in 2017) was fairly cheap in Tokyo and the rest of Japan compared to most countries.
