Then there's no net change to housing shortage. One party kicked out makes the unit available for an equivalent party to move in.

>homelessness

That's a reduction in demand if someone who would be living in a unit isn't.

It's not about supply vs demand. People need housing and are being pushed out by rising costs of living. that's the housing crisis.

Okay, words have no meaning to you, noted.

It kinda seems like your inability to explain your logic, then falling back onto saying that words have no meaning is you coping. I'm just trying to understand what you're trying to say, I'm not sure what coping I would be doing.

The breakdown is just the fact that I misused a single word so in good faith I'll just take that L. I was also very very tired at the time.
