Well, some of the stuff talked about at Davos is being implemented
It's not a conspiracy threory when all you need do is visit their own webites and read their own words.
The interpretation of the words can fall into conspiracy, though.
Not less. NOTHING.Everytime I see him I think why isn't he stroking a white cat sat on his lap
I guess saying people "will own less and be happier" has made him enemies and brought his profile up somewhat, given he isn't short of a few pennies himself.
True. But these people hardly seem more fluffy year on year, they seem to be more and more ambitious with their intent to control our lives as time goes on.
it's like the last fifteen years never happened. you don't remember gordon brown saying - way back in 2007 - that affordable housing was one of the great causes of the day. and it's not like it's got better since then.
I get your point.
the thing about owning an elephant is that lots of other people want to feed it too. home ownership will not be like buying a yacht, a yacht presupposes (in almost all cases) renting. renting a spot to keep it. the ability to move it to other places. and so on. home ownership presupposes a desire to stay in one place. and no renting, no harbour charges, really come within the idea of home ownership. i don't follow your bit about window stickers, it might mean something to you but it doesn't convey much to anyone else. the expenses home ownership attracts are in many cases lower than the expenses of renting - for example, it doesn't cost £15k a year to keep most flats up, yet that's about the minumum you'll find rented accommodation in many parts of london, generally with other expenses like council tax on top.
True, but that doesn't negate my point of their desire to monetise everything for their own benefit to the detriment of everyone else and it is all possible with centralised programmable CBDCs.
on the oxygen front, exhaled air contains about 78% nitrogen and 17% oxygen. it's not like people absorb the ~20% of oxygen that's in the air they inhale. so perhaps we should all charge each other for oxygen
so is volvo money and ford money
The guy is an arsehole, but this is the conspiracy version of what he was saying. It wasn't about a great conspiracy to remove ownership from people, he was proposing that people might not be bothered about ownership because technology would make renting easier and more attractive. He was exaggerating the point to try to increase impact - I doubt anyone really thinks that this will lead to owning nothing, and it was meant to be about why people would choose that in a positive way.
It wasn't even Schwab who said this. It was Ida Auken and it was just a wild guess at what might happen. Lots of idiots read it as the WEF want to take everything off us. Lots of funny stuff about Agenda 2030 if you want to look at weird yank conspiracy nonsense.
Yeah, lots of people try to predict the future and most of them get it wrong. These are knobheads with a bit of power predicting the future so I can see why it sparks some people's paranoia in a way. But ultimately they are not the people with real power to make things happen. WEF is just a talking shop really.
They will find a way to make an existing property unaffordable to own.
My god, your prophetic abilities are even lower than the WEF's.
right. so you think it's wrong to charge second home owners more, when they're blocking people from the area actually getting houses themselves. someone i know lives in a village in the yorkshire dales, has done all his life. he told me the village he lives in is utterly dead in winter, loads of houses empty because all the people who own them are in their primary residences. what's the future for villages like that, for villages in somerset, devon and cornwall and so on where rich scum, for want of a better term, have a) priced locals out and b) prevent any sort of community being generated by keeping their hands on a vast proportion of the houses? it's not like there's an inalienable right to own property, to own land, to act without any regard for other people's wellbeing or lives. sure, there's a right to housing. but not to the sort of land speculation you seem to like. there should be something like the universal public housing irish republican socialists eirigi propose UP Housing — Éirígí For A New Republic. and tbh a ban on landlordism and second (and third etc) homes.
That's already happened tho?
yeh he's not on the ball at all, this one
The subscription model over ownership is seen in sorts of areas-cars, houses even buying ground coffee
the sort of renting thing i can understand for cars and houses but how does it work with ground coffee?The subscription model over ownership is seen in sorts of areas-cars, houses even buying ground coffee
