      punish them for trying. we live in a culture of violence, anything less than staggering exemplary violence is inadequate.

      people have already died over this, I just want some of them to be guilty.

        The majority of landlords are “mom and pop” or the majority of units are owned by “mom and pop”? That’s an important difference.

        Example: 5 corporations own 95% of units but 5% of units are owned by 500 different “mom and pops”. This would result in the majority of landlords being “mom and pop” but the majority of units and the largest share of control over pricing would still lie with corporate owners.

        It’s a slim majority, and a $300billion/year industry. It would certainly have a normalizing effect.
