Totally reasonable like I said, just very punchy so it's hard to tell if I just walked into something.
Edit: I will add, my hatred for landlording (which is of course Lemmy standard) has been tamped by the fact that my parents had a 900 sq ft house they rented to truckers in our hometown, and I've often considered buying a house to rent out in the college town where I live. There are lots of people who only want to live in a place for 1 to 4 years near me and buying a house makes no sense for them. What is so bad about giving a nice place to stay for short term and putting enough money in my pocket to take a vacation once a year? Idk, it doesn't feel the same as slumlording a building of people who can't afford anywhere else to go.
Absolutely, do that. You can't control the forest when you only own one tree. It's not the individuals fault that the laws, and regulations have become predatory. Be ok with voting against your own interests if making the system more fair becomes an option down the line, even if that will effect your hip pocket. That's what needs to change, in more sectors than just housing, people need to be ok with voting against their own interests, if it means making the system more fair for underprivileged. Because those are the ladders that have been removed, and that is the way to put them back.
