Not everyone wants to buy a property.

If rent was just paying for the costs of utilities, insurance, taxes, general upkeep costs, and the mortgage for my unit I'd have no problem with it. When corporations start sucking up money to line the pockets of investors it becomes a problem.

Scalpers are investors of sorts, yes. Doesn't make it a good thing that we should have in society

Im the guy saying get rid of all landlords. Being investors is what makes them bad.
