What are companies composed of? Extraterrestrials?

Do the majority believe that 3 companies owning 19,000 homes between them in a particular city is harmful/undesirable behavior? Why? There's nothing obviously bad about that fact alone. How many houses are in Atlanta? The possibility that there are hundreds of LLCs shared between these 3 companies seems a bit suspect on the surface, but I could see how they could be simply acquiring smaller companies naturally. Idk how difficult it is or isn't to consolidate smaller LLCs into larger ones, but the implication of the article seems to be that this is a deliberate tactic to limit the amount of money these companies can be sued for in any one given case. Maybe, but would need more details to see that this is clearly what is happening and how much harm it is causing to aggrieved tenants.

People say that people use literally to mean figuratively now which is literally the opposite of literally, but I've literally never seen someone use literally to mean figuratively. I have often seen it used to hyperbolize the strength of analogies or generalizations, which means they apply literally somewhat figuratively, but that doesn't mean that they literally mean for literally to mean figuratively.

Very funny, don't listen to the wet noodles!

I think it's fair to call my comment unhelpful because my point wasn't to suggest that the article's contents were unsurprising, but rather to criticize the HN title and provoke further reflection on causation. The article doesn't explicitly suggest that profits are the largest driver (which I interpret as cause) of inflation, but it does use the word drivers for categories in a graph, which I think is unfortunate wording. The data are consistent with corporate profits being the largest category of the bunch where inflation is realized rather than necessarily suggesting that it's the largest cause of inflation. An explanation citing corporate profits as the root cause of inflation would lose the ability to predict when inflation is most likely to occur (e.g. after periods of loose monetary policy combined with large fiscal stimulus)

Wait for my forthcoming article "Contra Dwarkesh Patel on Marc Andreessen"

Just put in my two weeks notice Friday. Gotta blast!

If you are obligated to offer something for a purchase price set by a valuation committee, you do not in practice own it. The committee, though ostensibly bounded by some rules or guidelines, nonetheless could set a price different from what the market would actually bear. If they're truly offering competitive prices then the rule requiring a coin-finder to sell at the committee-determined price would be unnecessary.
