Sorry to disappoint, but landlording as a profession is the likeliest to thrive in a post apocalyptic medium.

I don't believe the pre-apocalypse landlords ownership of land will be respected or matter.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 months ago

It won't. The new landlords however will get to make their own rules about how to handle their unregulated ownership.

Yes but what is most likely to happen is that some violent mofos will take over large territories and make up their own rules and (...)

Which is what happened the last time there was a societal collapse.

You don't think indigenous people fought their own battles for their land? That they also fought to keep that land?

Do you seriously think every nation was magically given to people without warfare deciding who kept it?

First thing to happen on any revolution or collapse is to burn the debt records and redistribute the land. If some people object they'll be burned and/or redistributed too.

Not of you eat them.

The collapse of modern civilization would open exciting opportunities to own labor and not just capital.

But without the laws that protect them, we'll be free to throw them all in the garbage
