For example: I "own" a house. (I have a mortgage on a house, shared with three other people in equal share; I'm not rich, I'm a gay communist) However! What this actually means, practically, is that the government and the bank say I can live there. That's all.

If the bank shows up tomorrow and says I can't live there, and it's their house now? I can maybe call the government and get them to step in, and maybe they will. If the government says I can't live there and it's theirs? I can maybe call the bank and see if they'll do something about it.

If the government and the bank come to me together and say I (and the other three people) can't live there anymore, and it's their house? Then I can't fucking live there anymore and it's their house.
