MODERATORS
I didn't say I prefer them, I said that historically over and over again they get the goods. The problems you're asking about are questions all successful revolutions have succeeded at grappling with.
What does that mean? Should we perceive landlords as members of the ruling class and make owning property as difficult as possible because rising rent will lead to the revolution which will ultimately reduce rent?
Or should we perceive landlords as cogs in the capitalistic machine and increase their supplies to increase their output to reduce rent?
These both are relying on thinking you're the person in charge of the economy in a system were you aren't.
Then why bother at all?
You have a serious poverty of imagination. Think about how you can do things if you had an organization of people in your same class position.
I don't have much imagination. What can I do?
