Let me ask you all something: does an increase in demand for something raise the price for it, or decrease the price?
Careful, you might get Georgepilled
When I visited I found one for like $5 a day so wherever they’re going they’re getting ripped off.
No you didn’t. There are a total of zero $5/day spots in downtown Toronto.
To be fair he might have, if he visited in the 80s
That’s further back in time than one may remember
Or downtown any Western city.
Maybe downtown Nairobi.
When I grow up I’ma be a parking spot.
It’s honest work.
Why wait? We can cremate you now and make you into one.

Just like your mom huh?
Know who else gets cars parked on em?
My mom!
OK, miss the Reddit hive mind as little as anyone else here, but I laughed.
“Your mom” has always, and will always be golden comedy material.
Some openings are just too easy not to take.
Just like…
Ahh screw it!
No shame there - the communities in reddit were great most of the time. It’s the admins that were/are shit.
But have you considered there is also less demand for you than a downtown Toronto parking space?? Ha! Check mate!

I dispute that, you haven’t seen me striptease yet

More that it’s a matter of negotiation leverage. Rich folk find it hard to outwait other rich folk regarding property prices. Poor folk, though? We have a matter of days before we collapse because of our silly ‘human needs’ and such, which makes it imperative that we be kept desperate, lest our pay even vaguely reflect the amount of surplus value extracted from us.
So what I am hearing is, not only is that parking space a harder worker than you, that pulled itself up by the
boot strapsconcrete slabs, it is also a more talented negotiator than you. Shame.Truly a Capstone of Industry!

If you squat the parking space does that mean you can raise demand for yourself enough to receive higher compensation than the parking space alone?
The United States was dealt its final blow half a century ago at the hands of an Alzheimer’s patient by the name of Ronald Reagan.
This is the necrotic stage.
Naw it was all downhill after Jekyll Island 1913
fuck don’t say real things
“fuck don’t say real things”
As you wish.
There’s still hope!
oh god, it’s worse, go back
Toronto is in Canada.
And what a lovely hat it is.
for now
If my HoI playthroughs are to be believed, the US will take over all of the Americas and Luxembourg will take over the entirety of Europe and Asia.
Then the final showdown begins.
exactly
It was the US education system that suffered
No, this is Patrick
Just looked at a studio apartment at my old complex. It’s $2,995 a month. About $100 a day, assuming a 30-day month. You need to pay hotel prices just to live in a studio apartment (with a lease) here.
Welp, just don’t drive then if you can’t afford to park the car.
I was looking at Toronto real estate just for the lulz the other day… 150k$ to buy a parking space… First thing I found surprising is that you can buy a parking space (wtf?) But even more surprising… They sell for more than I paid for my condo 10 minutes from downtown Ottawa 10 years ago 😐
Catch being you have to live in Ottawa.
If you could rent it out for the 27 an hour like they stated above you could start seeing a return in as little as 5 years. Sounds like a great investment.
It’s an amazing investment because it pays for itself AND its value will increase because managers are idiots and are bringing people back to the office.
Don’t open a business downtown unless you have a damn good reason for it. It’s a massive real estate monopoly.
Yeah, um, we are going to need y’all to return to the office for, um, “productivity” reasons.
Hashtag rents be like
A human is definitely generating more value than the parking space, it’s just most of it is being stolen by greedy capitalists.
In Soviet Russia, parking space never earn more than human.
But mostly because the waiting list for a Lada was 10 years long.
This is the feudal stage of capitalism where the rich recaptured all the real estate and are making tons of profit just sitting on it.
Feudalism>Mercantilism>Capitalism>Feudalism
I don’t think I like this sequence.
Which is pretty interesting because the “God” of capitalism, Adam Smith, hated landlords.
How about we just get rid of parking in cities, so there will be no complaining about how much they charge for parking. Cars are gay as fuck anyways, just have sidewalks, bike roads, and actually good public transport lmao (tbf not something you can exactly find in most of the US & Canada)
Why are you using the word gay as an insult?
Surely they mean that automobiles are care free, right? … Right?
It’s okay, I’m gay as fuck too
Public transportation will always have the flaws of making you share a space with strangers and not being able take you to your destination without making a bunch of random stops on places that you don’t give a fuck about.
Try having less thoughts and feelings maybe?
I try
Believe in the you that doesn’t believe in anything!
