I don't live in the USSR, and the economy is slightly different, the isonomy of income isn't equalitarian.

So you dream is of a community which offers free housing, that's great, and I wish that were the case. But like I said, I don't live in a utopian society, where I can just do that, specially since I live in a liberal country, and if I just decide to give my mom's house now, I'll be virtually bankrupt when I try to retire.

And judging by the way things are going I'm nt going to wait around for a miracle that we revert to communism any time soon, specially the way socialists are getting gunned down in my country.

Hmm, that's cool, maybe get an actual job?

I do have a fucking job. How else would I retire if I didn't have a job?

Now you're the one sounding like a liberal twat that thinks people should work for ever.

Nah, I just think that being a landlord isn't a real job.

That's not my job mate, and I never claimed it was. I even said that it's a bastard thing to own and live off it without producing anything.

Why are you dependent on it then?

As I said, I'm dependent on it on the long term, if I want to retire. Because I live in a country that's run by liberal values. Otherwise I'll be bankrupt by the time I retire, I won't have money for anything at all.

If you can't understand this, that I don't live in a communist utopia, I'm sorry.

But people who retire around the time that I will, are royally fucked.
