I realise they don't care, and are disingenuous about their suggestions... But these people think the solution for people not being able to afford shit is "get a, better job" or in this case specifically, "become landlord"...

How do you expect society to function if every, single, person, is a landlord? Who's building the houses, cleaning after tenants stay, growing, harvesting, preparing food... Electricity?

Like, it just blows my mind that people espouse dumb shit like this and get a pass from most people
