    So, is the community forced to purchase the house if someone moves out? Or is it more of a renting situation and you never actually own your home, you just rent it from the community and when you move you lose all effort and time you have put into improving your home?
    All you have to do is look at the military “on base” housing to see how bad places can get if you never own anything. And I am not really sure that I would want to live in an apartment situation my entire life. I already think things like “eminent domain” are bullshit, but I can’t even conceive of how truly dystopian it would be to have your housing controlled by the government and whatever whacko managed to claw their way into power most recently.

      I do not have time or patience to educate you. Go read theory on alternative economic systems.

      Please, for the love of God educate yourself. You limit yourself by only thinking of this in terms of the current, highly exploitative capitalist system.

      It would look fundamentally different from anything that currently exists today.

        Ouch, so it is an assigned housing situation where the government gets to decide where and how you live…

          No, it isn’t. Jesus Christ you people are intentionally interpreting this in bad faith or just lack reading comprehension.
