You wrote it. You can’t re-read it?

The idea that if there were no landlords you'd be able to afford a house is absurd.

News flash dude, it was wrong then and it's wrong now, period.

If you think for profit renting is superior and less predatory to public housing, a successful model used in countries all over the world, and used to be successful in this country before the Conservatives and Liberals killed it in the 80/90s, then you're an idiot.

No one is saying the empty nester with the basement suite charging an affordable price for the unit is in the wrong. The one's that are in the wrong are the corporations and individuals who are buying up properties for their own personal gain at the sake of those around them who did nothing wrong other than being unlucky wth market timing. The ones in the wrong are the politicians who have lied to their voters into believing that for profit corporations are the solution to public services like housing, healthcare, and transportation, and the voters who have buried their heads in the sand and refused to listen to reason because they are scared of admitting they may not be right 100% of the time and would rather watch the world burn than change.

If you can't understand this then again, you're a fucking idiot.
