While I agree, if that were a law, they would just get all residential property (except for their neighborhood) rezoned.

Edit: Man, you guys really missunderstood my comment. I wasn’t saying we should roll over and die, I was just saying that wealthy shitheads cheat and steal.

lolcatnip,

I guess corporations are just our rulers and and we shouldn’t even try to restrict them because it might make them mad at us.

ricecake,

Did you know that unlike a corporation, you actually have a say in what your government does?

If they try to get an area rezoned, people can actually just say “no”.

This isn’t some weird fantasy either, it actually happens all the time if you pay attention to your local government activity.

HikingVet,

Rezoned to what and how?

I’ll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one.

Weirdly enough new York is on track to do that with Trump’s company.

is is basic leftism. if you think that statement is wrong, you’re not a fucking leftist

criticalcentrist,

Hmm, I think large corporations should never be allowed to purchase residences though anyone is allowed to create a corporation in the US you’ll just need to declare a CEO, COO, and a treasurer. This could be a simple mom-and-pop family business with 3-4 people/employees, this could prevent a lot of normal people/small business owners struggling to create a profit from purchasing workspaces, their own home, work equipment.

Hotels used to be where you lived if you were young and semi-transient. This worked because AirBNB had not yet been invented.

You could have just stopped at “allowed.”

Telodzrum,

This just results in larger complexes being owned exclusively by the ultra rich. This idea outlaws the very concept of a co-op.
