"We have seen corporate landlords—who own a larger share of the rental market than ever before—use inflation as an excuse to hike rents and reap excess profits beyond what should be considered fair and reasonable."
It truly depends on the definition of socialism. Is it socialist anytime a service is provided by the govt? Or solely when public policy limits the abilities of capital?
You and I disagree, and that’s ok cuz I don’t care.
Libraries replace the need for privately owned books with collectively owned books (through a democratic government). It is in fact a socialist leaning policy. Socialism is when you increase democratic ownership. Other examples include coops (democratic, collective ownership of businesses) like credit unions.
Libraries are not socialist. Socialism is not, in fact, when the government does things.
Thank you, boring and incorrect pedant.
