    That doesn’t change the fact they aren’t normal people. Most people would love the hope of ever owning one house in America, as a dual income household, much less two single people who are rich enough to have their own homes.

          They rented it out to their friends for like half of what a similar place would cost. Then they sold it after their friend moved out. Not seeing how that’s so morally reprehensible. You honestly just seem like someone who is jealous of someone else and so are shitting on them to feel better. And even if they did sell, if everyone is someone they can’t afford a house, seems more likely a landlord would buy it anyway.

              Can you explain to me how this dude renting out his property to a friend for half price is causing homelessness?

                  I didn’t say I was okay with homelessness. I’m just saying that you are picking the wrong type of person to criticize over this. There are huge companies that own thousands of houses. Foreign companies and individuals that own hundreds. I knew a lady that had like 20 properties. Those are the people causing the problem. Not some dude who charged way lower than the normal rent and then sold a few years later. Also, nothing about what I said warranted the way you’re acting. Never insulted you once.

              So far all you’ve done is lash out at everyone and swear. You have no compassion. You just have anger.

                  You just come off as unhinged is all. Doubt the guy you initially responded to voted for Trump and neither did I since I don’t live in that country. Neither of us are your enemy yet you treat us like it. You need to chill out and be more patient with people who you’re trying to convince of something.
