Never been a landlord. I own now (well the bank does and I pay my mortgage), but I’ve spent my time paying rent. I found a place and paid the askiging amount as it was worth it to me And when the landlord upped the rent unreasonably, I told them to fuck off and moved. True, I haven’t been poor by many standards. And I’m sure it sucks to not have enough to pay for necessities. I would want the government to provide a safety net, but I think if everyone just gets everything handed to them, we’d be a lot less of a productive society. And that’s bad, as a productive society increases quality of life for all.
