“The corporate landlord will also be required to clearly disclose its leasing prices, establish policies and procedures to handle security deposit refunds fairly, and stop other unlawful behavior.”
Lina Khan is one of my favorite people in the US government right now, the FTC has been doing such good work under her
So I’ve gotten that impression but admit I haven’t been following closely. Could you give like a tldr top 5 or something? Hard to Google that kind of thing
- Generally stopping mergers to prevent monopolies such as preventing Nvidia from buying ARM in 2022
- Right to repair being FTC policy from July 2021
- Big pharma drug prices being too high (e.g. insulin and inhalers).
- She at least tried some stuff against Meta and Microsoft (but those were unsuccessful) but at least she tried-more than any previous FTC chair anyway.

Our hero
So while you lemmings are whining and crying about landlords, please try to remember, this is your fucking enemy. Not some dude renting a couple of houses and barely breaking even.
These motherfuckers own over 80,000 properties. You are 100% right, these shit stains are the enemy. Sure wish politicians would do something about it instead of talking about building more properties for them to gobble up.
How about the FTC literally going after them in this article
Yeah, that’s not what I was saying. They are going after them for being shitty landlords, and that’s fine, but I don’t see shit happening to stop these parasites from owning so many properties.

First year I rented, I wouldn’t even have wanted to own a house. Leave the person with exactly one small apartment they rent and constantly maintain with excellent standards alone.
Wow, looking through the article, this company looks pretty damn scummy.
Go get’em, Lina!
