Its not all about the landlords, its about poor regulation and updates for inflation. People are always going to charge as much as they can get, and there isnt enough help or available housing. At some point, none of us will own land. Itll just be the banks.

And who will stop them?

No. See that’s the issue. Good people aren’t always going to charge as much as they can.

I live in a pretty rural part of NJ and in the summertime there are roadside stands everywhere. Some of them have price tags and are staffed with cashiers and that is fine. The one near me has a metal box with a sticker that says “pay here”. There’s a piece of printer paper in a plastic sleeve with prices scrawled down the side of it. There is a giant sign on the back wall that says this:

“Take what you need, just pay what you can. We are happy to help our neighbors and friends”

Greed isn’t normal and you acting like it is, well it’s part of the problem.

I live in a town like this! People turn their noses down on where I live, but I've found the people here for the most part are very kind and giving, even when they don't have a lot.
