I've heard similar guesses that executives or whoever... invest in businesses that benefit from their employees foot traffic. Not sure either.

Lol I don't know about all that.
I don't know but there is a commercial property bubble right now. I've heard speculation that said investors want their commercial property loans to stay far away from default. They need commercial property to be worth more because loans are in danger of not being repaid.
There are people who agree with you who don't have the patience to deal with militant teens. Thanks for commenting some sanity.
Derailing answer for a good faith inquiry.
Making something unsuitable for investment so we preserve its primary function (houses being a home to a family and not an airbnb or an empty rental).
So artists will find that if they want to play at a large venue, they will need to sign with livenation because the venue has?
And venues sign with livenation because a lot of artists are signed with livenation and they want good artists?
And they don't really care after they sign because now the requirement to sign with livenation is a burden of whoever isn't signed with livenation?
And the only person who really loses is the customer?
But why should it be anything but a personal investment? I'm not seeing your point there. Isn't it better for everyone to decommodify housing?
So why exactly are venues forced to use ticketmaster? I don't understand. Does everyone involved in the show just get more money when ticketmaster is bleeding customers dry with fees? Are there not other simple payment processors that can be used instead?
When communities aren't as populated we rely on a more central content feed. Young reddit was the same way. People identified with the site as a whole with advice animal memes and news instead of everyone having their perfect niche subreddit feed that emerged with a huge userbase.
The general feed that we have now is a little immature but that's how reddit was too. Lemmy or whichever platform succeeds will mature and cater to us eventually but for now it's kind of like going back in time. It's weird and fun and definitely good enough. No fucking way I'm being an experiment to some shitheads that don't respect what reddit is about. It will all be worth it when lemmy develops I think.
Bad managers are a waste of resources just like bad front line employees are a waste of resources. Any role that has less oversight has more potential for abuse that is harder for the company to recognize. It's probably easier to notice an underperforming employee in person than it is virtually.
The longer term effect on growth of talent and teams is probably still largely unknown.
