  • Wow, applause for the big smart tankie. And I suppose you think we should all just drink water out of a mosquito infested puddle? Grow the fuck up. Even if we could somehow magically just all drink pure clean water out of your utopian Soviet water tanks (definitely no lead in those pipes, right?), people crave sweet bubbly beverages, it's just human nature. So instead of suggesting completely unrealistic fantasies, you should do something productive. Join your local Pepsi branch, and after we get this 2 liter mainline hooked up, you can work with us to ensure the next bottle has less corn syrup in it.

    (This is a bit. I’m not seriously trying to make a fucking soft drink analogy much less a pro-lib one)



















  • Less than half of the interest payment, or less than half of the mortgage payment? Because I don’t believe you when you say market rent is only half of the, what, roughly 5% APR interest rate on the loan?

    I’m guessing what you’re saying is that your tenant will be helping pay down your mortgage, but without getting any equity. If that’s the case, then you’re definitely setting up an exploitative, unequal relationship with your tenant. Whether that is inherently unethical or wrong is a more subjective matter, but any friendship you might think you have with your tenant/flatmate is going to be primarily colored by that unequal power and exploitation.
