    and I owned nothing

    Companies love that, until everybody is completely in debt and they learn you can’t seize property from people that don’t own anything.

      I think you are too nice.
      they are actively trying to own everything.
      And then they don’t need to seize anything, because you are forced to work to the bone (even more than you are right now) to just afford your own house rent/property tax.

      Companies love to become like old Lord and counts and own the land/products and you just rent and work for them.

        Yes. They’re busy buying everything already. They just need a financial crisis to get the rest for pennies on the dollar. After that it’s time for neo-feudalism.
