Why does lemmy want to make renters homeless so badly?
Because I'd rather be putting money toward owning my current residence than renting it.
But the bank says I'm not allowed.
And you’re likely not allowed because your landlord helped create a housing market that so cooked you can’t enter it.
People owning homes they don't need doesn't making housing more accessible for everyone else. If you understand math, this makes sense.
