Comments on I am not rushing out to rent one.

I visited the web site and it looks like a case of getting so caught up in the marketing gimmick they forgot to mention what the product is. Apartments for tourists with communist era decor, as far as I can tell. Funny how this is all well and good but Nazi apartments would be beyond the pale.

There's actually a magazine for those living in the Czech equivalent, the paneláky.

Ted,

the Czech magazine is about how to make the communist-era buildings relatively liveable places for those who don't have money to buy something better. No nostalgy at all.

Nazi apartments?

Don't take a shower!

Heh, the placard is red.

The Eurosocialists should open up an apartment complex on Serfdom Road.

Another thought...how does the Marxist labor theory of value work into apartment rental?

Do not ask such questions - you may have to be reeducated if you persist.

Or your asking such questions may be evidence of some form of mental illness - for which the people will have to treat you.

Alas, but for obscure reasons Mac and some Linux users cannot use push-button formatting options and have to use basic html manually. Revealed forthwith are the mysteries of basic Html:
