real estate investors.

then it follows that they are going to be lifetime renters.

The upside (for the exceptional few) is that they will become landlords with a large, fully captured, market of needy renters. It IS a class war, by all appearances, but I am not worried. Klaus and his very exceptional minions have declared that “we will have nothing, and be happy.”

That remains to be seen.

What is clear is the wealthiest of the investor class are counting on landing on top of the pig-pile with full control of the necessities of life of all we lesser humans . The proof of this intent is amply demonstrated by their recent efforts to develop driverless big rigs.

Truckers are far too rebellious for them to rely on and will need to be re-educated and forced to submit. Like everyone else.

something happens to rearrange property relations so that the people with the new power own everything. Its because the ruling group has to reward them and the only way to do it is to take everything the previous group had and send them packing.

This is similar to what happened under colonialism. In Kenya it was a systematic programme of disenfranchisement. Hundreds of thousands of people died. They beat people who would not provide them with slave labor. People had no choice but to cooperate or they were imprisoned in the gulag camps or killed. President Obama's grandfather was one of these people they tortured.. .

This is a BBC documentary about Kenya "White Terror" and the work of Caroline Elkins in documenting the British Gulag. The British were in charge and they wanted the indigenous African people and their needs out of their way. It was incredibly rich agricultural land and the "White Highlands" were areas witrh a pleasant climate that the British "settlers" had given to them, after the natives were evicted and in many cases, killed.

In the years after World War II the aristocratic people in the UK, regretting the granting of benefits like the NHS and social housing schemes (they claimed that the victories of Labor in the postwar years were coercive and illegitimate) wanted to change the deal in Britian. If they could not, they wanted the working class to leave, to go elsewhere. Places like Kenya that they had stolen from their actual owners. History shows us what happened. Ads in glossy magazines offered incentives for people to leave. To relocate the working class to places like the White Highlands or Indian Hill Stations. Which were (now) famously hedonistic communities sustained by the most unimaginably unequal and greedy situations. Black families were not allowed to live there unles they were in the employ of whites. (Much like the GATS Mode Four guest worker schemes that are promoted by our trade deals, like GATS. And compared to "Modern Slavery")

So these settlement schemes encouraging white families to move to Kenya to take the pressure off of their nobility in the home country, is kind of an example of white privilege in its worst form. They even advertised "Free Land" in magazines. This is the land that the Kikuyu people in Kenya had owned in the recent past. So they objected, they rose up in response to the large scale land grabbing by the Britiosh. By means of the Kenyan Land and Freedom Army. Which the British named "Mau Mau".

Here in this video a retrospective look is taken at this era, basically the 1950s in Kenya. you will hear many stories of how they killed and tortured people including children. They also would also brutally rape women, again and again and again. Many of the perpetrators are still alive and they have largely gone unpunished. The UK has not compensated people who had been tortured, or castrated.

Basically they were treating Africans like Hitler treated what he called "slave races". They were unwanted people. Because of what they had a natural right to, originally. (Kenya)

It is all about property and power. The poor losers of these battles arent desired any more because they serve as a reminder of the theft. They are only in the way.

So they are always done away with in some kind of way.

This shows how important land is. The landless people have no anchor that gives them permanence. Everything takes them to a situation of statelessness. The poor are artificially put in and then are kept in various states of non-personhood. They have nothing. They live under freeways because that is "land" that cant be sold to anybody. (currently) They have no addresses. Cellphones may be given to them but the reasons are informative, they are used to take fromthem, not give anything to them. Any benefit has to have its price, often the price they must pay is huge, their children, their ability to earn money and take precious vanishing jobs. Cellphones are used to track the poor.

They are systematically disenfranchised, as they live nowhere so are not voters or legal students they cannot be educated. Now the UK uses cell phones to determine that homeless people dont live in the districts they try to attend school, then they assess charges against people for stealing services. In Australia they claw money directly out of peoples bank accounts digitally. Its called "RoboDebt" and there is a lot on YouTube. Beware of the push to make everything "Cashless" its purpose is to empower digital seizure of money from people so that people cannot avoid paying debts, by offshoring jobns they make everybody dependent on the dole and expose people to having everything they might earn or own taken away diguitally and then they have to have money to pay for a lweyer but of course these hapless people wont have anything. If they have any money it will be sized the second it goes into an account, they wont be able to get an attorney.
