I rent out my basement at well under market value to an older lady that was in the house when I bought it.

I understand the post was made as a generalization but some landlords aren't bad and some situations are better than the alternatives.

Would you rather I kick out my tenant and god knows where she would live or maybe she becomes homeless?

Name one functional society that's big enough to have property rentals but doesn't.

It is a job when you’ve got dozens of shitty tenants always complaining about petty little things like heat, mold, and infestations

You should tip landlords, not get rid of them!

So renters would just live in someone else's house for free?
