The theory is simple: instead of buying a household item or a piece of clothing or some equipment you might use once or twice, you take it out and return it.

    Hmmm I wouldn’t be so sure… It depends on their position in the market and how well they lobby the government

      Not really, not every business is in bed with the politicians. This was a worse case scenario where rentals became the main method of purchasing, so everyone would be on level ground. Those making 20 times profit margins are not everyday businesses, they ae luxury brands who would still thrive on their branding alone.

        Which business isn’t? I honestly want to know to restore a semblance of hope in humanity

        AFAIK, a business that is not in bed with corrupt politicians is because they have ready been beaten or they can’t afford it
