Can I borrow your house and sell it now?
No but if I did, the govt shouldn’t be a big nanny and prevent the transaction.
We are in the process of nationalizing financials because of short selling. Houses will be next or some other industry. So on which end of the transaction should the government be on? Of course, I could borrow your house from your bank and sell it, would that make you feel better? My IOU is good. The government says it’s OK.
