This only seems to not make sense if you assume that the landlord hasn't rented the property in the past and won't continue to rent it in the future, and also that you assume that revenue is the same as profit, which it fundamentally is not. If they're only making $100-$200 in profit how do you account for the rest of the money that's paid in rent? There's no way they're renting me a house with central air for only $100-$200/mo, is the rest of the money I pay in rent maybe, and hear me out here, going to cover expenses like a new AC unit?
I'm arguing exactly that, that every business pays for things with or in anticipation of revenue. It's built into the idea of seeking profit. I'm a W2 employee and the business that employs me pays me with revenue they bring in and in anticipation of being able to use my work to bring in more revenue than they pay me. It's kinda fundamental to the rationally self-interested profit motive that's supposed to drive this whole economic system.
You have a respectable mind, and a good eye for making the points that you have been. I can tell you know a thing or two about this life and societal interplay. To be honest I’m not really interested in trying to drive any point anymore. Replying to everyone when I’m clearly the odd one out has been exhausting. Enjoy Lemmy and be seeing you!
Oh man my bad, I thought you were like me and enjoyed this sort of shit for its own sake. Hope you have a good one too!
