    Definitely love this idea, make it with a nice courtyard with plenty of green in and around the structure and it’d be great.

      I feel like this could get twisted to the dark side by let’s say Walmart. Live above Walmart, work at Walmart, buy everything you need from Walmart then get cremated there. Probably while on food stamps because they still don’t pay enough.

        Yeah, people like Elon Musk are trying to revive the 19th century concept of company towns. Move your employees to the middle of nowhere in Texas, suddenly they’re renting your houses, buying stuff from your store and basically never leaving. Quitting/getting fired suddenly involves uprooting your whole family to a completely different state on short notice.

          To continue in my dystopian vision, it would also make things like shutting off the heat to the apartments in retaliation easier too.
