I’ve been thinking a lot recently about limits on property ownership, like how they would work and what the side effects would be. I feel like there needs to be something to prevent a necessary resource like housing from becoming monopolized. Something like antitrust law for property ownership.
Sure, maybe that would help, too. But like any system built by humans you’re going to need consistent, rigorous, investments in education or in a few generations you’ll have idiots tearing down chesterton’s fence. “I don’t see why monopolies are so bad” -> “oh no why is everything so expensive and dangerous??”
