The problem is the market, IMO, if not capitalism entirely
but it seemed to me that you were disagreeing with my post when you said “the problem is making a profit off it.” I could have misunderstood, and you were agreeing?
yes. Capitalism is the problem, not landlords per se. Under capitalism, I feel like it is more ethical to rent out a spare room in one’s house than it is to not rent it out.
I don’t know how you got ‘this person is pro-capitalism’ from me saying ‘profit is the problem’.
