Capitalists are blatantly preying on sick people, and still people find ways to blame liberalism. Holy damn.

Just came across this phrase that seems to be a common theme amongst the people who are tenants resenting their landlords for taking part of their paycheck.

I was a student for several years renting in w/e city i happened to be in at the time and never spent more than a quarter of my monthly pay on rent so can't quite relate.

Is this just general resentment of the wealthy by poor people?


The communist view is that all landlords are leeches.

The idea is based on the premise that income should come from labour not ownership of property.

Garbage premise.

If a person saves enough income to buy property and that property eventually generates him income then why is that wrong?

No wonder communist systems have imploded all over the world, literally designed to keep people dependent on big brother.

That is really misunderstanding the labor theory of value.

Also you just cannot centrally plan an economy. Even Communist States with competent leaders that did their best was still a disaster. I'm referring to East Germany.

Any government that has secret police needs to be eradicated as well.
