So, exactly what I said. Noted. You want the "freedom" to survive off someone else's work, while not having to work yourself.
Freedom to me is being able to own your own home, and not having the wealth you created stolen by some absent owner.
stolen? noone is forcing you to rent
First off, that wealth being stolen comment is about capitalist extracting surplus value from workers.
Also, the state is forcing me to rent, or otherwise live on the street. I am unable to mortgage due to bad credit. Renting is the only option.
