    Funny how if you remove all landlords no one loses their home.

      People who can no longer afford their mortgages would disagree with you.

        Ban landlord culture and property prices drop.

        Kinda sucks for those already with a mortgage. Defending rental culture because someone might lose out now only guarantees that an ever increasing majority lose out in the future.

        I and many working people like me can’t afford a mortgage EVER because all of the market is bought up for renting, so they would become just like me, except I’d have a real fucking job

        People who can no longer afford their mortgages because they suddenly can’t leech of off working people can go fuck themselves.

          “There’s a great place to go when you’re broke: to work!”

          • big time landlord and big time conservative asshole (but I repeat myself) Dave Ramsey.

          Luckily all these rugged individual landlords already know exactly where their boot straps are! Right??

            Is he hiring? Is he willing to pay a reasonable living wage?

            If not he should STFU.
