They will nickel and dime small owners in order to force them to sell out to big amalgamations that use rentals for income streams.
Best way to own them would be to have them in some type of common law or blind trust so you see the income but don’t have any connection to being leaned on to cough them up.
I always keep 50% of my 401K borrowed out, which I will default on if the government gets squirrely with them.
Being able to pick up your assets and carry them, having them buried someplace where others have an extremely low probability of finding them, and having real estate titled to avoid confiscation via personal association are probably going to be pretty important in the future...
Every time I read about someone burying their assets like gold, I have flashes of the medieval and Roman era coin caches found periodically.
A small business or tools that can support a trade and thus income are better than gold coins that can be confiscated, stolen or lost.
