100% they’re bad tenants. They’re also people who never want to own, they’re people that will never be able to afford to own. There will always be a need for land lords
Sure, under our current system. But you said there will always be a need for landlords, which I take issue with.
But housing doesn’t have to operate the way it does now. There’s a variety of ways to pay for people to have housing under a money-based system, like through taxes. The soviet union had housing cooperatives.
Hell, you don’t even need to go that far, housing prices are currently so high because we allow massive real estate corporations to buy up property to artificially inflate price. Government regulation on real estate as an industry would serve to lower housing prices.
At the very least, make it so they can’t just sit on vacant homes.
But that’s IF the government would build said housing. Or it takes it away from owners which is fucked. I’m all for government owned housing if they will build it and maintain it. It could lower housing prices and rents, your right if they build enough of them where needed
You can say that about a lot of things, matter of fact now, you have to pay for housing, there is no fantasy land where you don’t and won’t in our life time
There are no “bad tenants”, because that would imply inconveniencing landlords and costing them money is morally wrong. It’s not, it’s funny as hell😭

Bad tenants and people who want to rent exist, but the rest I don’t agree with
Well… No? You’re assuming a system where you have to pay for housing.
Which is essentially every where, that’s life.

Only within a relatively recent stretch of history, before that you only needed to pay for fancy stuff (think pyramids or castles or whatnot)
Pay with money? No. But with blood when someone else decides they would like your home.
Yeah let’s go back to that. Seriously.
Please for the love all that is good, let us go the fuck back!
