gollark: *How* does it actually do that?
gollark: It serves as a subsidy for whoever happens to rent the thing first, and does not fix any underlying problem or provide people with choices.
gollark: No, my issue is that it isn't very good charity.
gollark: I am fine with people using land for community things. I just don't think it makes much sense to randomly rent out land cheaply if you have an issue with local land pricing.
gollark: I don't even know what economic system would actually work at this point but some markety thing seems to be the best available in a lot of domains.
