    I read up on it, but I’m not sure how that’s immune to greed. Are you able to explain?

      There’s a limit on how much stuff you can “own” and actually use. If you don’t use it, you don’t own it anymore.

        usufruct

        So… reading the Wikipedia article on it for more info, it doesn’t seem to place any limits on what you can own. It simply lets you makes allowances for others to use something of yours. It doesn’t seem to mention forfeiting unused property in the least.

        It’s basically just being a landlord, but with other stuff, no? I’m not following how this isn’t corruptible unless there’s something I’m missing.
