Why on earth do you think anyone would rent out a house, or pay for all the ancillaries - furnishings, repairs, insurance, legal etc. if they didn’t get a return on their investment, time and effort? Do you also accuse Marriott of being parasites for renting rooms? Or Hertz for renting cars? They do these things because they spent a lot of money to provide something of value that people can utilize for a period of time but they still expect to make money.
Renting is a business. It’s as “parasitic” as any other business were a person pays for something with money and receives something in return. If you are not prepared to rent then don’t. There are other options to having a roof over your head. Buying a house would be one option but there are others.
If you equate rental cars and hotel rooms as the same as shelter used every day I don’t know how you are going to begin to understand the other person’s argument. I hope you can educate yourself about this.
Yeah how dare I make an obvious point that people rent houses to make money. They aren’t charities. It doesn’t make them parasites or evil. They’re not responsible for the price of houses. They’re not responsible for social housing. They’re not responsible if you cannot afford what they charge to cover their costs & make money.
“Buying a house” lol, imagine being so out of touch you think that’s an option for people who can barely handle rent.
Imagine being so out of touch that you think people who rent property should do so out of the goodness of their hearts.
