I agree. There's too much usury and rent seeking behavior. Comic still applies imo. If the working class can't afford the rents even, they'll lose money and go out of business. Corporate industries are built on the product/payment/service being affordable to the masses.

I feel like it's all a movement to force the lower class into "submission".
Price us out of cars. You don't need to travel far, just from home to work.
Price us out of homes. Houses are for the rich, stay in your apartment so you get squeezed with a price hike every year.
Price us out of computers. You don't need a computer, everything you need is in your phone, which tracks you and listens to your every word.
Oh, and then there's everything turning into a subscription. It's all built to drain money at every opportunity.
