They're just trying to pay for their grandma in the nursing home!
Oh, what about your grandma? Fuck her, pay your rent.
If someone's grandma goes into assisted living, how does selling their house help anyone who can't afford a house? Especially given the cost of assisted living. That's a ridiculous criticism. It's the people who own a dozen houses, or complexes, who are the problem.
It is helping those that can afford a house but get outbid by leeches on society looking to increase their investment portfolio
Selling a house doesn't prevent anyone from being outbid on the sale.
The "kill landlords" crowd doesn't care for this nuance.
