It is a strange situation where lots of people are retiring, but the jobs aren't there.
In Canada, the youth (15-24) has a hard time finding jobs, but nobody wants to work I guess.
If it tastes like lettuce, just throw any combination of oil, salt and bit of sweet and you're good to go

Now is a good time to bring back a moba because the market isn't as saturated when MNC was released.
And for what it is worth, MNC was a great game.
It's a great launching pad to learn how a language works, but beyond simple things, it get bad very fast.
I also use AI to look for terms in specific domains, which is really helpful as well.
The tenants literally pay the taxes, insurance and maintenance in their rent payment. When any of these inflates, so does the rent unless there are protections in place.
So being a landlord means someone else pays the mortgage for your unit.
The only thing that could be seen as a service are short term rental, and even then, it was abused to death by the AirBnB/VRBO and any other short term rental service.
Rent seeking is the most capitalistic thing someone can do : you use your money to get someone else to pay your rent. You do the minimal maintenance that you can get away with, and when you actually do real maintenance, your tenants get a rent hike.
If there weren't any landlord, there would still be housing. But a lot more people would own the place they live in, at a reasonable price, instead of housing being used as an investment vehicule.
I see the nuance you are making now and I agree.
SaaS does feel like technofeudalism where you pay but don't own shit, a bit like fiefs working in the field and giving wheat in exchange for a land that they don't own.
I mean, rent seeking is the best case scenario for a capitalist. You just insert yourself in the supply chain without much investment and get money for simply being in the chain.
My point is that postal service shouldn't be run as a private company that absolutely needs to turn a profit, just like healthcare for example.
Conservatives love to treat Canada Post as a private company because they can then tell everyone how unprofitable it is and must be dismantled and sold off to private interests. And then, it will cost even more for less services
Or, hear me out, some services don't have to be profitable, like sending put parcels and letters within a country, healthcare or public transportation. Essential services you know.
Instead of giving money to mega corpos for them to pocket it, we could pay for services that benefit the citizens, just like China is doing for postal services.
