crazypeltast52 posted:Adam Smith’s use of landlord is the same that Henry George used, as far as the right to use a particular parcel. Georgist land taxes rest on the principle that the improvements represent productive investment and the marginal product of the land itself should be the property of the state. A landlord renting out an apartment unit and a groundlord with a 100 year ground lease have very different profiles. I greatly appreciate the history and context you're providing. I agree that there is a difference on holding land and maintaining a property on said land. I am unfamiliar with the works of George and want to spend some time learning more about your argument.

Adam Smith’s use of landlord is a hereditary aristocrat who will never be subject to estate or property taxes extracting rents from tenant farmers or sharecroppers, depending on the level of exploitation. A modern landlord as the term is used is much more of a capital player instead of a land player as one of the four factors of production in economics.

If taxes do not eliminate the gains from charging rent, then it's nothing more than a fee for the right to charge rent. And what estate tax?

I certainly welcome anybody who wants to have an actual reasonably topical discussion about problems that can be solved in real ways other than murder and violent appropriation of private property The murder of people and the violent appropriation of common land that was made private is the only reason why you are able to extract rent in the first place. If you are against such violent appropriations, I suggest you make things right and donate your real estate back for the common good.

I certainly welcome anybody who wants to have an actual reasonably topical discussion about problems that can be solved in real ways other than murder and violent appropriation of private property landlording requires the credible threat of state violence on people using an otherwise unused house. Your problem with violence on the part of the tenant trying to keep from being evicted isn't that it's violence, it's that it's being used to keep landlords from taking stuff from the people who are using it.

What up, landlords. Question for you, what's it like being a blood-sucking parasite? Do you actually bite onto your tenants and suck the money out through your tentacles or is that just a metaphor? Oh well, at least you're not lettings agents, am I right? Ahahahahahaha. But seriously, you're all terrible people. So what's it like to know that someone's human right to shelter is less important than your human right to a large bank balance?

Alright, I'm reopening it without handing out probations, but with a word of caution: The thread is for discussing owning rental property and its issues. Occasionally the non-financial aspects as well. Sending the wealthy to the guillotine is a funny running gag that I imagine even the thread regulars enjoy.... in moderation. When it begins to prevent actual discussion about the thread topic, that's where I have to step in. So if you're just here to brigade from C-SPAM, stop. No one goes to your place of business and knocks the hammer and sickle out of your hands.
