    How is rent-seeking any different than being a so-called “welfare queen”? No improvements are made but rent goes up for no reason, you’re quite literally giving someone ‘free stuff’ for no reason.

    grillman: “Buh…but…it’s my property!”

    And you use that property to leverage yourself into my wallet. So excuse me if I begin to respect your “property rights” a little less in return. I mean hey, in these uncertain times, We AlL hAvE tO mAkE sAcRiFiCeS fOr ThE eCoNoMy! I’ve done all the sacrificing so far, now it’s your turn.
