I didn’t downvote you for your response, but also didn’t feel the need to explain it further.

To add to it however, a proposed bill in Minnesota’s Senate would ban the conversion of single-family ownership housing into rental housing.

In the US Congress, legislation has also been introduced to prohibit hedge funds from owning single-family homes.

Progress is slow, but it’s happening.

You’re making very valid points and I appreciate your optimism. I’m just being a sarcastic, salty little baby about shit cuz I’m in a mood about all this.
