@finitebanjo I can also do poetry: the State is a tool of organised Capital

@finitebanjo the government often steps in to clean up after (take on the liabilities of) private companies. Does it mean that all private companies are just government entities? Hardly. You are talking about some weird scenario, where housing coops leads to individuals ending up with a giant debt. It doesnt work like that in any European countries. Where are you living, and why don't you have better legal frameworks for housing cooperatives?

@finitebanjo yes, you are correct: At the very end of all legal frameworks you will find the source of the laws, which is of course the government. This is true of both private property owning landlords and of social housing cooperatives. What is your point?

@finitebanjo I don't know where you live, but it sounds like your legal frameworks for housing cooperatives are horrible. Perhaps you need better laws or government support. But there is no reason why we would need a landlord with a profit motive

@cosmicrookie @stabby_cicada I mean for example with housing cooperatives

@cosmicrookie @stabby_cicada you could still have rental houses in a system with no landlords
