    Fuck all the greedy landlords. Kudos to all landlords out there who charge rent based on a persons income and don’t feel a need to charge what “The Market” dictates.

      the problem is not the landlords playing the market prices, its the unregulated market… the guys making the legislation are landlords themselves, they are profiting with this shitty market

        Same here in the UK. Foreign ppl and companies buy land and property here as an investment, often leaving it empty. While people sleep on the streets outside.

        This is one reason I’m an advocate of squatting, and have spent many years living in squats. It’s increasingly difficult, of course, because the landowners are buying politicians and tightening legislation.
